Jake Wizner (edit name/settings)

Author Jake Wizner, an eighth grade English and history teacher turned first time author, has done an absolutely stunning job depicting the life of a teenage chronic masturbator obsessed with little more than finding a girl to mate with and wallowing in his own self pity. At times the writing is so terrifically realistic that it begs the question: Is Shakespeare Shapiro really the true-life Wizner back in the day? Whether he is or not, Wizner has created an unbelievable, disturbingly honest teenager who you can gawk at, be shocked by, and at the same time, completely relate to. -Andrew Fersch, VAIL DAILY
