Description:
It's a long summer of change, and three boys approach the inevitable start of adolescence from different vantage points, in this young adult debut by the acclaimed author of The Hotel Eden, At the Jim Bridger, and other fiction for adults. Praised by authors as diverse as Stephen King and Amy Bloom, Ron Carlson has a keen eye for language, for the subtle dynamics of friendship and growing up. While the characters in this book face complicated, difficult home lives, this is definitely not a standard problem novel; complicated issues are woven deftly into the fabric of an absorbing summer read.
