Ironman
Overview & Summary
Seventeen-year-old Bo Brewster, kicked off his school's football team for his explosive temper, channels his anger into training for a triathlon while being forced into anger-management group therapy, where he slowly begins to confront the source of his rage: an emotionally abusive father. Chris Crutcher's novel combines sports fiction with an unflinching look at family dysfunction and the process of learning to control destructive emotions.
