Strange Metamorphosis (Paperback)

Winner of the 2014 LITERARY CLASSICS Awards: The Eloquent Quill Youth Fiction Book Award & Best Fantasy Fiction YA. When a boy is faced with a choice between two tracks for his future, an unlikely source sends him on an incredible expedition-becoming a bug in the process. Forced to trust his instincts and follow his heart, he must complete his fabulous and terrifying quest before it is too late to return to the land of humans. A fantasy of astonishing depth and resonance, Monk's tale of self-discovery and escape from family pressures is as entertaining as it is fulfilling. His use of Marcel's metamorphosis as metaphor exposes the weird and wonderful world that exists right under our feet. B.R.A.G. Medallion Honoree.
