  • Asher Wyndham: Zero by Ian August
    “

    It's like crossed between Hogwarts School for teenage fuckups (minus the magic) and Sarah Kane's sanitorium in the play Cleansed.
    It's ugly, but pretty ugly, if that makes sense, in yer face with it, kind of like a video from My Chemical Romance.
    There's an insensity to Zero's depression that many of us could relate to, that feeling of nothingness.
    But there's a surprising hopefulness, a reminder that even when you're at your bottom, even when you feel powerless, there's someone to connect to. Read this!
    The narrative structure offers designers a fun challenge.

    From a pit of despair both literal and figurative, Ian has drawn hope and handed it to a memorable and sympathetic trio of teens who desperately needed it. Hugely theatrical, emotional, magical and all-too-real, ZERO--contrary to its title--is definitely something big, and I can't wait to see where it goes from this early draft.
