Here's the thing - I didn't buy the characters, the premise is hard to swallow, substantial developments in the story are unrealistic, and on close reflection a lot of the plot doesn't make sense. But I admired and enjoyed the book anyway.

There are moments of resonance in the story of Billy Smith, which quietly puncture memories in my own life and I feel sure that this will be true for all readers. This is, perhaps, the point. May creates a truthful moment of poise between the ‘trauma porn’ of the ‘real-life’ magazines and the surreal agony of Billy’s own life, such that this piece of fiction weaves its way into our own memories of actual lives and real truths. And somewhere, always, amidst it all, there is the sunshine, which thankfully prevails. end date, this is stated within our rules of play. As soon as they call up, we upload the initial of theThe book has variously been described as raw, funny, heartfelt, sad, comic, gritty, heartbreaking, confused, happy, bleak, wry and tender. It is all that. It is confessional, almost more like a journal or diary turned into a running narrative, and if you like the hero's voice and are interested in what he's interested in, (or if you just like tight, sharp word craft), I would think you would enjoy this a great deal. The book tells the story about the life of a 19-year-old young man named Billy and his little brother, who try to live on after the death of their mother. Billy is suddenly thrown into the messy adult world and tries to find the balance between being a 19-year-old and being a responsible parent with all the problems an emotions that come with it. That's something about the book that I found really interesting. In England, a nineteen-year-old can buy beer for kids. In England, a nineteen-year-old is seen as an adult. In America, some things that happen in the story would never be able to happen simply because of the difference in the way Americans versus the British see teenagers. It's really a question of what a kid is, what an adult is, when that change happens, and who has the right to say when it is. Aunt Toni obviously feels that Billy is not quite an adult yet, but Billy feels he is, and the courts don't dismiss him right off the bat, so they at least consider the option that he could be a responsible adult. That's part of why the book is sort-of New Adult, sort of just plain adult, because Billy acts like an adult but thinks like a teenager most of the time. I don't think the question is answered in the book, it's just an interesting thing to think about. Stephen May’s Life! Death! Prizes!, a finalist for this year’s Costa Book Award for Best Novel, is a deeply affecting, modern tale of loss featuring a protagonist that’s so charming that he effortlessly fools the reader into agreeing with nearly all of his thoughts and choices. In fact, it’s not until much too late that they realize something isn’t quite right, but by that point they’ve already crossed beyond an invisible line of no return, watching as he spirals ever closer to disaster. Billy's mother is dead. He knows-because he reads about it in magazines-that people die every day in ways that are more random and tragic and stupid than hers, but for nineteen-year-old Billy and his little brother, Oscar, their mother's death in a bungled street robbery is the most random and tragic and stupid thing that could possibly have happened to them. Now Billy must be both mother and father to Oscar, and despite what his well-meaning aunt, the PTA mothers, social services, and Oscar's own prodigal father all think, he feels certain that he is the one for the job.
