He befriends a small boy who lives next door. </p><p>He yearns to get to the bottom of life and how best to live it.</p><p>Funny, friendly, enigmatic and frequently poignant - superbly naive.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><i>"Loe certainly has some of Salinger's lightness of touch, and often comic voice of his unnamed narrator recalls Salinger's Holden Caulfield.
