Teenage Wasteland by Anne Tyler
3.0

Teenage Wasteland is an expositional story that offers no answer to anything particular. It's just about a teenager slipping out of his parent's grasp and deep regrets and lingering blame. Very bleak, if you ask me. And very much real world problem. I wanted to smash the tutor's face to pieces, though. And I hate how Donny's mother never really disobeying the whack tutor's instruction.
