Michael "Caruso" Taylor is a man with a problem. He can't speak. In fact, he can't do much of anything the way he once used to.

He calls it "The Wasties," a condition with no known cause and no known cure. Hethrows his sippy cup. He bites his nurse. He tries to wall himself into his bedroom. He tries to run away. But as Caruso slips further and further away from sanity and adulthood, his mental life begins tosoar.
Distinctive, funny and deeply affecting, " "The Wasties presents a unique vision that offers insights into madness, aging, notions of success, and the desire toabdicate from the responsibilities of adulthood. "From the Trade Paperback edition."
