Jasper wants to get on in the world, but he's got a lot on his plate: A-levels, his mother pushing him to overachieve, weekly visits to his psychologist, comedowns, Youtube suicides and pregnant one-night-stands. Then there's his stepdad - the murderer.
Hilarious and heartbreaking by turns, Grow Up is the ultimate twenty-fisrt-century coming-of-age novel. It paints a vivid portraid of the pills and thrills and bellyaches of growing up today. Funny, smart and twisted, it is the story of one young man transformed.
