About this audiobook
From Brigid Pasulka comes a charming fable of one misanthrope's journey from darkness into the light--Etto couldn't care less about soccer. His twin brother Luca, a rising soccer star, died in a motorcycle accident, and their mother drowned herself on the anniversary of his death. But then Yuri, a Ukrainian soccer star, hides from the paparazzi nearby, and Etto accidentally falls into his orbit. Etto begins to learn that life might have more to offer him than he would have believed possible.
