Insights from Chapter 1

#1

I was Queasy when I heard that Billy had been run over by a car, and that he died instantly. I was sent his belongings, which were neat and tidy, unlike when he was alive. I called his drug counselor at South Miami Hospital, who was disappointed that Billy had gotten high and threatened a nurse.

#2

I had adored my big brother, Billy, in fourth grade, but I was always afraid something terrible would happen to him. Billy was constantly in trouble, and I didn’t know what trouble meant, but when the trouble got bad, he would be sent away

Reviews for Summary of Annie Kagan's The Afterlife of Billy Fingers

[Nick Chase · Rating: 1 out of 5 stars]

Haven’t read the book, but the summary will give only a little glimpse as someone has lazily or deliberately just cut and paste rather than do the work. Don’t bother reading the summary, or at least this one, because it will be a waste of your time.
