While growing up in the Highland Park area of Los Angeles, Quattuor-who is shy, different, and struggles with obsessive compulsive disorder-is constantly harrassed by bullies. Sometimes he feels like he doesn't want to live anymore. Nevertheless, he is determined to move forward through life, despite his seemingly insurmountable hurdles. As he struggles to personally develop within his relationships with girls, friends, and his family members, there are also negative repercussions of how he copes with his problems. Still, Quattuor is pushed forward by an unknown force as he struggles to attain true happiness. When an eighteen-year-old Quattuor eventually graduates from high school and moves to the outskirts of Los Angeles, he must rely on different personalities to propel himself into adulthood. Will Quattuor be able to overcome his painstaking obstacles and find the answers in order to make his dreams come true? Wings in a Jar shares the coming-of-age tale of a California boy's struggles as he sets out on a challenging journey to find the path to ultimate happiness.
