The year is 1991, and Spud Milton's long walk to manhood is still creeping along at an unnervingly slow pace. Approaching the ripe old age of fifteen and still no signs of the much anticipated ball-drop, Spud is coming to terms with the fact that he may well be a freak of nature. With a mother hell-bent on emigrating, a father making a killing out of selling homemade moonshine, and a demented grandmother called Wombat, the new year seems to offer little except extreme embarrassment and more mortifying Milton madness. But Spud is returning to a boarding school where he is no longer the youngest or the smallest. His dormitory mates, known as the Crazy Eight, have an unusual new member and his house has a new clutch of first years (the Normal Seven). If Spud thinks his second year will be a breeze, however, he is seriously mistaken. He is soon beset with women trouble, coerced into misguided late-night adventures, and funds his dreams of a famous career on the stage in tatters after landing the part of the Dove of Peace in a disastrous house play production of Noah's Ark. To top it all off, boarding master Sparerib and his prefects Death breath and Earthworm are concoct{Ziyuantun.Com}ing an almighty plan to get Spud and the Crazy 8 expelled! Hilarious, bitter-sweet, tragic and real, join Spud as he takes another tentative step forward while all around him the madness continues... 译文(2): 这一年是1991年，土豆米尔顿成年的漫长道路仍然以令人不安的缓慢步伐缓慢前{资源屯-ziyuantun.com}。接近十五岁的成熟年龄，仍然没有迹象表明，万众期待的球下降，薯仔正在接受这样一个事实，他可能是一个很好的怪胎。母亲一心想要移民，父亲靠卖私酿烈酒大赚一笔，还有一个精神错乱的祖母叫 Wombat，新的一年除了极度的尴尬和弥尔顿的疯狂之外，似乎没有什么其他的东西。但是 Spud 正在返回寄宿学校，在那里他不再是最年轻或者最小的。他的宿舍同学，也就是众所周知的疯狂八人组，有了一个不同寻常的新成员，他的宿舍也迎来了一批新成员(正常的七人组)。然而，如果土豆认为他的第二年将是轻而易举的，那么他就大错特错了。他很快就被女人的烦恼所困扰，被迫进行误入歧途的深夜冒险，并且在获得诺亚方舟灾难性的家庭剧中和平鸽的角色后，他在舞台上的著名事业的梦想破碎了。最重要的是，登船大师 Sparerib 和他的学长们，死亡呼吸和蚯蚓正在策划一个强大的计划，让薯仔和疯狂8被开除！滑稽，苦乐参半，悲剧和真实，加入薯仔，因为他采取了另一个试探性的一步，而他周围的疯狂继续..。
