Very thought provoking  |
I almost floundered and abandoned this book and Im so glad I didnt. I couldnt see where the book was going at first but I did persevere and was rewarded with one of the most moving books I have ever read. William Maxwell has a way of making a fairly ordinary subject matter, with few real highpoints in the subject compelling and truly sensitive. He writes with feeling and emotion that men and women alike would enjoy and appreciate. The book is based around friendships developing through teenage years - how they start and how they end and how they change along the way. Its a very intensely emotional story of the love felt between friends. Very very few books bring tears to my eyes but this is one that did. Anyone with friends should read this book!

A truly exceptional book. Few books are this perfect |
This book is one of the most beautifully written books I have ever read.Such is the quality of writing, that some part of it will have resonance for everyone. The story is engaging and rewarding to read, the writing is intelligent and elegant. Maxwell can capture the subtleties of both verbal and non verbal communication and convey them with startling accuracy. His ability to identify the fragile and unredeemed features of human existence is both powerfull and moveing. Every boy & man should read this book, it will leave them richer than it found them.
