Mysterious Skin

One day, after a football game, Brian blacks out after getting caught in a rainstorm, and five hours later he finds himself sitting in his basement with his nose bleeding and no memory of what happened to him.
That's the beginning of the story about two pre-adolescent boys who are sexually abused in their childhood. It affects their lives in different ways: one of them becomes a reckless hustler, while the other retreats into a fantasy of alien abduction.
