''The body is a house of many windows: there we all sit, showing ourselves and crying on the passers-by to come and love us.'' Robert Louis Stevenson

Nick hates it when people call him a genius. Sure, he''s going to Cambridge University aged 15, but he says that''s just because he works hard. And, secretly, he only works hard to get some kind of attention from his workaholic father.

When he arrives at Cambridge, he finds the work hard and socialising even harder. Until, that is, he starts to cox for the college rowing crew and all hell breaks loose...
