““Lucky Man” by Ben Tanzer is an edgy debut novel depicting the struggles of four boys trying to escape the realities of becoming an adult. Through first person narration from all four points of view, I was able to get to know each and understand a bit more about the choices they make. The characters are believable and the story clearly shows the talent of Mr. Tanzer. As long as the reader is able to overlook the lack of editing or even proofreading, this is an impressive first novel.”
