Summary "A debut novel grappling with contested American identity, masculinity, and deportation, told in one of the most memorable adolescent voices in contemporary literature"-- Provided by publisher.
Seventeen year old Bucky Yi knows nothing about his birth country of South Korea or his bio-dad's disappearance. His sights are set on one all-American goal: to become a college football player. So when a misadventure with his adoptive family leads to his deportation to South Korea, Bucky is forced to navigate an entirely foreign version of his life. One mishap leads to another, and he has to fall back on not just his raw physical strength, but resources of character and attitude he didn't know he had.
