No. That’s why the story has to be told again. From the beginning. Because sometimes something trivial can change everything.’

This novel is a double tale about buddies Joe and Ben, and their friend Tam. The first part, ‘Black: Never Be Like Them’, is about the sort of daily ritual humiliation that leads to a school tragedy. The second part of the book – ‘And A Sort Of White: Surrounded By Assholes But Don’t Give A Damn’ – tells the story again. But one small detail is different, and that changes the whole course of events…

This ground-breaking novel from award-winning author Jon Ewo shows us that we all have both sides in us. So the end is neither black nor white, but grey.
