Inhaltsangabe

Bubby Welter's world is shattered at the age of fifteen when his mother, Carrie, has a ‎mental breakdown. ‎ A coming-of-age novel, Take a Look at Me Now, depicts the impact that mental health ‎struggles have on the individual suffering, and on those in her orbit. It is also about seeking ‎out, and coming to terms with, lost fathers.‎ Bubby's family situation is upturned by his mother's illness, but he has problems of his own: ‎the embarrassment of botching a robbery, nearly destroying a close friendship and his being ‎duped by a charming girl.‎ ‎ ‎ In an effort to face his fears and anger, he undertakes a search for the father he never ‎knew.‎ The story captures the sense of stagnation and uncertainty in Bubby's and his mother's lives, ‎with both characters seemingly stuck in their own worlds. It leaves the reader wondering ‎how each of their agonies will affect their relationship and what changes lie ahead for ‎Bubby and Carrie.‎
