Josh Bell and his twin brother Jordan play basketball like gods, and this is not surprising: their father is Charles “DaMan” Bell, a former famous basketball player who inexplicably left his career. The strong bond between thirteen-year-old brothers is suddenly broken by matters of the heart: Jordan gets a girlfriend. And a little later it turns out that this expression means not only love affairs, but also real heart problems, like myocardial infarction. A novel about basketball and growing up, about love and loss is written in verse. Kwame Alexander's books have been translated into many languages, The Crossover is held in American schools. The rap adaptation into Russian was made by poet and musician Mikhail Fenichev (groups 2H Company, Yes, Yes).
