About this book

Craig struggles to speak naturally among his friends, feeling detached even while they joke around a television. The novel follows a New York City teenager dealing with depression and time in a psychiatric hospital. Its opening combines humour with private distress, showing the gap between a group's casual conversation and Craig's difficulty explaining what is happening inside him.

Ned Vizzini

Vizzini was writing for the New York Press as a teenager and published a first book at nineteen. In 2004 he spent five days in a psychiatric hospital in Brooklyn, and It's Kind of a Funny Story, written in three weeks afterwards, comes straight out of it: a sixteen-year-old admits himself and finds the ward less frightening than the school he came from.
