Long Answer
1. The emotional drama of the novel centers on how Ethan Metzger handles the guilt he feels about his overly aggressive behavior. His initial responses are as understandable as they are self-destructive. He attempts first to isolate himself—to stay off social media and not go to school. Then he attempts to engage the school therapist in a kind of talk therapy, but Ethan refuses to talk about his guilt. Then he considers flight, going with homeschooling or maybe transferring to another school. He even considers dropping out of football. Each is an escape, in its own way a kind of emotional coma, a retreat, a space apart. In the end, he comes to understand that he cannot run from his actions.
