Lazy Eye - Hardcover

Frustrated by racial taunts, pelted with banana skins during his last game, black soccer player Sonny Johnson snaps, committing a violent crime on the very same day the heat wave of 1976 breaks in a massive thunderstorm.
In one fell swoop, Sonny's teenage son Geoffhurst loses all the super-heroes in his life: his glamorous, headstrong mother (dead), his gang of Four Aces (dissolved), his father (jailed), and the Incredible Hulk (outgrown). Only his witchcraft-working Aunt Harriet remains, and it is through her lyrical story of Caribbean immigrant life and unrequited love that we uncover the seeds of Sonny's rage.
