When Stars Fell Into My Soup

While Spencer’s morphine-addled brain meanders, a dozen other stories, spanning across multiple cities in the US and India, get entwined with his—an ailing widow, a soon-to-be groom, a lost son, a hopeful father-to-be, a lonely romantic, a once-envious sister, a desolate dad, a has-been wife. Spencer Diaz, a sixteen-year-old teenager, is dying. Almost. Probably. Well, it is up to his doctor and his dad to decide how long to wait for a transplant before they pull the literal plug on his life support system. While he awaits his fate at a hospital in Del Rio, Texas, Spencer ponders over the soupy mess that his life is, what with a runaway mother, an outcast band of friends, and the odd gun shooting in the school corridors, not to mention the steady dose of bullying and the angsts of growing up. Stepping out from the medically induced com(m)a into a full stop sounds too appealing.
