A recasting of Sorrentino's "Aberration of Starlight", this is the story of how a child becomes a monster: of how Red the boy becomes Red the Fiend. With an absent father who turns up only to drunkenly berate his son, and a grandmother whose aggression crescendos to a daily beating, Red can only escape by turning his hatred outward, by being as cruel and bitter as his young life has been. Employing direct, elegant sentences, while retaining his characteristic formal inventiveness, Sorrentino evokes this unyielding grim Brooklyn boyhood describing close, familial conflicts that deepen and widen to reflect the hardships of Depression-era life.
