Inhaltsangabe

In 1947 a lawyer encourages a waitress in the rosebud diner in davis square to enroll her son in the boston latin school. Style delaney, her son, attends boston latin for six years and is admitted to harvard in 1954. In 1953 style hooks school with pete simonelli and through pete begins a friendship in a boston poolroom with a gangster, dancer dugan, that eventually leads to full membership in dancer's gang. In one world in cambridge at harvard, style studies latin and ancient greek and searches for truth and beauty. In another world in charlestown, he works as a bookie at the seedy bar dancer dugan controls. Harvard square is not far from davis square, style's home, but in the 1950s the cultural gap between them was huge. In davis square, style hangs out and drinks with friends who are mostly laborers and factory workers.
