Chargement... Be True to Your Schoolpar Bob Green
![]() Aucun Actuellement, il n'y a pas de discussions au sujet de ce livre. ![]() An amazing book, if a little suspiciously implausible in one respect. In 1964, Bob Greene kept a daily journal of his junior and senior years in high school, and now it has become this book. Even then, the writing mirrored the style he would later use for his columns, perhaps more naive but just as honest. The one jarring episode was the affair with the beautiful 27-year old. I have a hard time believing that, but he did write a later column about meeting up with her once after this book was published. Outside of that, the book has the uncanny knack of bringing back the reader's (mine, anyway) own high school experiences, no matter what they were like. aucune critique | ajouter une critique
Distinctions
Today, Bob Greene is a celebrated, nationally-syndicated columnist. In 1964, he was a seventeen-year-old Ohio high school kid. And he kept a diary. It's all here. The teenage girl who got away. The twenty-seven-year-old woman who didn't. The first beer. The first job. A series of bad haircuts. Friendship and betrayal, griping and groping, a daily account of one boy's struggle -- and all of our struggles -- to forge his way into adulthood with dignity intact, virginity a bad memory, and the day-to-day knowledge that it's not going to get any easier. "A delightful book, and like the song Greene cruised to that summer, fun, fun, fun." -- Los Angeles Times Book Review "Everyone who was ever seventeen will love it!" -- Ann Landers Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |
