Inhaltsangabe

Chris Clark remembers Tingston as the best place in the world to grow up.

Maybe it was.

It was a town of Friday-night football games and drive-in movies, of spinning 45s and long nights in the booths at Crommel’s Diner. A place where summer sunsets seemed to last forever and where Chris’s big brother, Dan, the star quarterback and prince of the town, seemed capable of anything.

Fifteen-year-old Chris had every reason to believe life couldn’t possibly get any better.

But it was 1968.

Beyond Tingston, America was coming apart. Assassinations played out on television. Vietnam moved steadily closer. Woodstock promised an entirely different world. And little by little, the things Chris believed were permanent began to change.

Friends would choose different roads. First love would prove more complicated than a song on the radio. Heroes would turn out to be human.

And Dan would not always be there to protect him.

Through it all, Chris holds fiercely to the Tingston he remembers: the people, the places, the music, the laughter, the heartbreak, and those impossible sunsets he spent years trying to capture on paper.

Because some places disappear.

Some people do, too.

And sometimes the stories we tell about them are the only way we have left to bring them home. Spanning the turbulent years from 1967 to 1973, TINGSTON is a sweeping coming-of-age novel about brothers, first love, friendship, family, and the strange power of memory to preserve a world long after it is gone.

Heartfelt, funny, romantic, and deeply nostalgic, TINGSTON is for anyone who has ever looked back at the place they came from and wondered:

Was it really as beautiful as I remember?
