Reseña del editor:

Guided only by his depraved teenage neighbor, Denny Graubart struggles with the onset of puberty while watching his family slowly deteriorate as his mother tries to keep his autistic brother out of an institution. Reprint.

Nota de la solapa:

aubart, the chaotic summer of 1967, when the screams of napalm bombs on the nightly news drowned out the cheers of the All-Star game, brings the painful realization that childhood has passed. while engaging in his favorite domestic spying game, Denny unwittingly discovers the desperate measures his mother will take to save his autistic older brother, Fad, who is lost in the diagnostic Dark Ages of the 1960s. At the heart of this novel is not only the story of Denny's coltish entrance to adolescence, but also that of his relationship with Fad, which will be forever changed during the course of that summer at 44 Drainer Drive. This is the cruelly antic, heartrending story of two childhoods that would, by fall's arrival, be irretrievably lost.
