The protagonist Syd, at the age of 17, is lonely and in the beginning of his love. In a small town in Brownsville with a population of only 5283, only his father knows himself, but he hung himself. Since then, Syd has become prone to anger and inner strength. Want to release. But I don’t know who to tell, but at the funeral of the pet hedgehog, I can say what I want to say to my father but never had a chance:
If only I was by your side when you were dying. If we know you need help, we will definitely help you. You are gone now, but we can't do anything, we can only miss you. Everything is different without you.
I have a bad relationship with my mother, "always try to make each other angry with my mother." The most desperate moment should be when I muster up the courage to show my mother Sometimes it feels like people I love don't love me back. But my mother just Indifferently replied Maybe you are aiming too high, hon.
Until Stanley appeared. The first time Stanley ran into Syd's bizarre superpowers, he comforted her, it was just a panic attack, it didn't matter. What a warm and caring boy. And he himself is actually experiencing the misfortune of growing up.
I love the conversation they had when they drank Coke while watching the boys playing football on the side of the court. Stanley said that the entire town is a theater, a live theater, which is very Shakespearean tragedy. As soon as "Hamlet" opens, you know it won't end well. The most popular boy on campus may end up as someone who manages an insurance sales company. Only such people will participate in the class reunion years later, because otherwise they will not encounter anything worth mentioning. Thing up. What a tragic story, this is the best drama. Perhaps Stanley is another lonely soul in the town who can realize such a philosophy. Only he can understand Syd better than others.
The presence of her younger brother is another ray of light in her helpless life. The innocence is mixed with a trace of a mature young boy. I can make Liam's Loaded Lasagna for my sister, and I can tell the mother-daughter relationship in one word. Syd was scared to confide in her heart at first, but the invisible inspiration from her brother gave her courage and made her willing to walk towards Stanley and try to "be a Lasagna once."
In the end, after his mother confessed the truth about his father's death, Syd seemed to immediately reconcile with his mother and part of himself. Knowing that the source of the strength in his body was inherited from his favorite father, Syd began to try to let it go and "live like a normal person." But his private diary was discovered by the disgusting boy, and Syd broke out again, and finally could only escape from the crowd.
Many of us like Syd lack caring, withdrawn personality, and fear of the crowd. Perhaps we can only gain a little attention and a sense of existence by venting our anger. When you are habitually ignored by your boyfriend, when your mother's daily self-confidence is destroyed by your mother, and when you are inadvertently mocked by your colleagues, who doesn't want to have Syd's superpowers? All we want is to let them shut up and love us back.
Are the requirements really too high?
