Σχετικά με το ebook
A young man comes of age in Eisenhower-era Chicago in this “stunning” Pulitzer Prize Finalist novel by the author of Echo House (USA Today).
In An Unfinished Season, Ward Just evokes a city, an epoch, and a shift in ideals through the story of nineteen-year-old Wilson Ravan. In his summer before college, Wils finds himself straddling three worlds: the working-class newsroom where he’s landed a coveted job as a rookie reporter, the whirl of glittering North Shore debutante parties where he spends his nights, and the growing cold war between his parents at home.
With unparalleled grace and incisive observation, Just brings Wils’s circle to radiant life. Through his finely wrought portraits of a father and son, young lovers, and newsroom dramas, Just also stirringly captures a seismic shift in American political life.
WINNER OF THE HEARTLAND PRIZE FOR FICTION
“A master American novelist.” —Vanity Fair
