The weight of him
Rohan, Ethel2018
Large Print
Big Billy Brennan has suffered the greatest tragedy a parent can know - he has just lost his eldest son. His family is falling apart with grief, and his marriage is a partnership in name alone. Billy is also obese: at 400 pounds he can barely walk down the street without breaking a sweat. In his small Irish town, he can't escape his notoriety. So Billy decides to take on the two things weighing him down - his grief, and his fat - in the only way he knows how. He's going to get fit, and in doing so he's going to tell the world about the terrible plague of suicide that is haunting the youth of Ireland.
