Dangerous turns and rites of passage- a Huckleberry Finn for the 21st Century.
Published to widespread critical acclaim and made into a feature film, "ZigZag" is the namesake and touching tale of a strange and wonderful 15-year-old boy. ZigZag is autistic with an innocent curiosity and odd perceptions that give him keen insights into his oppressive world. His uncanny aptitude for numbers turns out to be both a blessing and a curse.
Beset by his neglectful father, ZigZag finds refuge in his friendship with a volunteer mentor named Singer, a forklift driver who does his best to keep his unusual friend out of danger. But the action heats up when ZigZag naively steals thousands of dollars from the safe at the restaurant where he works as a dishwasher.
With Singer's help, the unlikely duo plots to return the money and, in doing so, has to navigate a seedy underworld bent on bringing them down.
