Death of a Superhero by Anthony Mccarten
Donald Delpe is a troubled teenager. Not only is he a 'terrible teen' by default, as obsessed with sex, music, videogames and drugs as the rest of his gang, but he is also suffering from a life-threatening form of leukemia, which makes him an even more difficult boy, both for his parents and his teachers.
'written in a completely original format, which flows effortlessly' - New Zealand Herald
Anthony McCarten's debut novel, Spinners (1998), won international acclaim, and has since been translated into four languages; it was followed by The English Harem (2002) and Brilliance (2003). McCarten has also written twelve stage plays, including the worldwide success Ladies' Night, which won France's Moliere Prize, the Meilleure Piece Comique, in 2001. McCarten has also adapted another of his plays, Via Satellite, into a feature film that he directed, which had its world premiere at the 1999 Cannes Film Festival.
