Publisher's Summary:
Noted author Dan Wakefield's most famous novel seethes with pent-up frustration and confusion, and nearly every episode bubbles with hilarity. This novel of the 1950s so perfectly captures its time and place that it transcends the specific and becomes universal - a true classic of American literature. In true testament to that fact, Wakefield later penned the screenplay for the 1997 motion picture version of Going All the Way starring Ben Affleck.

The Key
A good little tale set in Indianapolis by an Indianapolis writer. The author graduated from Shortridge HS in Indianapolis in 1950. He drew his material; from those times. Being a Hoosier and knowing Indianapolis I enjoyed the book very much. Young men trying to figure out what to do with their lives. One a HS athlete (a hero) and the other brought into the fold after HS. I enjoyed the story and the writer wrote it well. Kept me interested.
If you a man tha t was youn man in the 1950s.
The book is interesting to a man that was a young man in the 1950s. It was raw but the ending left a feeling it was not complete.
Not my cup of tea

Two Stars
Just wasn't what I like to read.....my bad.

The word "predictable" is not pejorative. The author took the reader from points A to B in a perfectly plausible story arc. I'm enamored with the time period, and Wakefield presents a worthy evocation of an era when the glow of America's victory in World War II gave way to the ambiguity of Korea and the Cold War. All in all, a mature and thought-provoking book.
