Description:
In the summer of his first paper route, as he walks the tenement canyons of his hometown, Eugene begins his journey of self-awareness. It is a summer of Sahara afternoons, of lingering evenings, full of questions and mysteries. It is the summer of his first love, of expeditions with his boisterous cousins, of exciting encounters with friends and bitter ones with enemies. It is also the summer of tragedy for his favorite uncle. But it is most especially the summer of the airplane and the bond it creates between Eugene and the distant, enigmatic father he adores.
Expand description
In verse of intense lyricism and haunting beauty, Robert Cormier conjures up the sights, smells, sounds and emotions of a summer long ago. His touching, tender chronicle of a vanished world celebrates a son's relationship with his father and human connections that remain timeless despite a constantly changing landscape.
