Josh Stephenson's 13th year starts with a baffling series of events. As he begins to question the meaning of life and creation, everything changes, not least himself.

Fish in the Sky not only constructs a moving narrative but it also approaches issues such as single parenthood, absentee fathers, sexual awakening and bullying.

A powerful piece of literature that endeavours to explore the juxtaposition of teenage angst and ecstasy.
