This is a pure American rust-belt town youth coming-of-age novel. It is set in a declining industrial town in Ohio, USA, and focuses on the living conditions of the Cole family. It tells the story of the youngest son Jess, who is pampered by the whole family, and relies on his natural high IQ and the protection of his family to grow from a confused and rebellious teenager to a man who can hold the line and support the family. The violent scenes are in line with American street logic, the passionate core is based on the protection of family and the awakening of youth, and the emotional line takes into account the favor of the wealthy daughter and the resonance of the broken soul.
