The setting is a private boys school in Ireland. If you have spent any amount of time with teenage boys, you will know that nothing is safe from sexual innuendo. Murray captures the banter and the testosterone fueled behavior of teen boys really well. Avoid this book if you can't stomach it. Otherwise, it is worth your investment of time.
