The Postmodernism is Real!

  The spooks or the nerd Throughout the book of black swan green, we follow a 13 year old boy named Jason. We see a whole year of his life and the decisions that he makes throughout the novel. Also well throughout the novel we also get to see the two sides of Jason that he has to pick. Either he is with the cool kids and is a spooks, or he is going to be "gay" and be a writer.
