Miracle Boy grapples with determinism, chance, and free will via a Dantean journey through the hells of alcoholism-induced psychosis. Yet Moody writes drunken madness and dissociation with startling lucidity. His prose is by turns forensic and mystical, often transcending to a state of pure poetry. The weight of the fear that pervades this text - fear of living, fear of dying, fear of doing neither - bears down on the reader from the offset, and the protagonist's determination (and dire need) to 'fix everything' makes you want to save him yourself. If you've ever thought that you've 'chosen the incorrect life', felt overwhelmed by the thousands of metaphorical doors you could open, and decided that you 'wanna change everything', then Miracle Boy is the novel for you. This is certainly Moody's most accomplished work and I'd highly recommend it.
