The outbreak of World War II and the ensuing draft of able-bodied young men severely depleted the ranks of professional baseball players. In 1943, Philip K.

The Screwed Up Life of Charlie The Second

Sometimes, it's just easier to think I'm not the freak. I'm just in an alien world. . .

An embarrassment to his parents (he's not too crazy about them, either), Charlie is a virtual untouchable at his high school, where humiliation is practically an extracurricular activity. Charlie has tried to fit in, but all of his...
