The Basic Eight
 

Browsing Options:

It's first semester senior year, and Flannery Culp needs her friends more than ever. Her homeroom teacher is a tyrant, her biology teacher is a pervert, and in a few months the Winnie Moprah Show will broadcast vicious lies calling her a Satanic murderer when they really mean murderess. Flan needs Kate, even though she gossips incessantly. She needs Gabriel, even though he has a scarcely requited crush on her. She needs V_____, whose name has been changed to protect her wealthy family. She needs Douglas, who can get absinthe. She needs Lily, she needs Jennifer Rose Milton, but most of all she needs Natasha -- beautiful, brave Natasha -- who is turning her calculus teacher's advice -- do something -- into a formula for panache. Flannery needs all of the Basic Eight, because high school can get so stressful, you just want to kill someone.

Vocabulary:

TYRANT
INCESSANTLY
SCARCELY REQUITED
PANACHE

Study Questions:

  1. In order to sell, a work of literature now has to be condensed into a few pithy paragraphs on the front flap. Does this seem right to you? Why or why not?
  2. Really, the only way to tell if a book is any good is to purchase it for yourself, take it home, and read it all the way through. Don't you think? Why or why not?
  3. If a boy is messing with your head, is it okay to pummel his head? Why or why not?


Dazzlingly funny...covertly lyrical, and absolutely without parental supervision, The Basic Eight manages to be amoral and humane simultaneously."
   MARK O'DONNELL, AUTHOR OF LET NOTHING YOU DISMAY AND GETTING OVER HOMER

"Imagine being young, messed up, and too smart for your own good. Flannery Culp is all three. I followed her adventures with admiration and envy because Daniel Handler is one of the sharpest, funniest, and best writers around."
   KIT REED, AUTHOR
