Riassunto

Budo is Max's imaginary friend. He and his fellow imaginary friends watch over their children until the day comes that the child stops imagining them. And then they're gone.

Budo has lasted a lot longer than most imaginary friends - four years - because Max needs him more. His parents argue about sending him to a special school. But Max is perfectly happy if everything is just kept the way it is, and nothing out of the ordinary happens.

Unfortunately, something out of the ordinary is going to happen - and then he'll need Budo more than ever...

Recensione:

Green has done something quite remarkable. He has written a book which requires an adult intellect, and adult emotions, to navigate despite presenting it entirely from the perspective of the child within us all. It is a tense psychological thriller, and in parts, it is an absolute page-turner. And he has penned a warm and moving story about life, death, love, loyalty and destiny. This is no block-buster, but if you are anything like me, Memoirs of an Imaginary Friend will leave you sadder, happier and itching to talk to someone about the ingenious, the incredible, the invisible Budo (Booktopia)

A heart-warming story of love, loyalty and the power of the imagination . . . It's a tense, psychological thriller that is about love, death and loyalty (Daily News)

One-of-a-kind, strong and beautifully written - utterly engrossing . . . This book is unlike any I have ever read: it is simply written, yet profound . . . This is a charming, chilling, warming book - the complete package (Courier Mail)

Fresh, poignant and compelling . . . Sad, humorous and very different (Sunday Mail Adelaide)

A very touching and uplifting story (Good Reading)

Descrizione del libro:
