The story

Jason "Igby" Slocumb Jr. is a misanthropic 17-year-old boy, rebelling against the oppressive world of his strict East Coast "old money" family.

His mother, Mimi, is self-absorbed and distant and tends to drink heavily.

After happily flunking out of several prep schools, he ends up in a brutal military academy where he gets beaten by his classmates.
