Maladaptation
In L.A. Fields’ Maladaptation, 16-year-old Marley Kurtz is an unrepentant bookworm who’s whisked off to a correctional program in Colorado after his parents realize he’s been having an affair with a man 43 years his senior. Once there, Marley becomes fast friends with the caustic but optimistic Missy, who’s 15 years old and pregnant, and falls in love with Jesse, an ice-eyed and totally hot sociopath with an outlaw for a father and a corpse for a mother. As the stress and heat of summertime causes Marley’s physical and mental health to go into a tailspin, it’s anyone’s guess which of his new friends has the worst influence on him—or whether any of them will get out of the Baptist-run therapy group alive!
