Love,+ghosts+and+nose+hair



**Jack is the central character in this delightfully readable story written in verse. All the poems add together to build up a picture of Jack, his father and sister, his mother and his girlfriend, Annabel. Jack's fascination with love and sex, nose hair (he thinks he has some), and the ghost of his mother, form recurrent and intertwining themes in the book. The poems are funny, clever, and at times very sad, but always engaging.**
 * Jack is 16. He's obsessed with the beautiful Annabel, the ghost of his mother and nose hair. This is a bitter-sweet comedy written in verse for young adults. **
