This was a soft little tale set in another epoch and a world very different from today. It was very easy to read and although short and lacking the depth of a longer book, it touched several aspects of self-discovery, coming of age, and being gay. In the 70's the trials and tribulations were not quite what they are now, but this is part of our history and very relatable. If I have any criticism it is that it was too short. A glimpse into a world where teenagers bought LPs they listened to in their bedroom, mobile phones and satellite tv had yet to be invented, electric cars were science fiction. A war raged in Vietnam not like today in Iran, but not much different. I recommend you read it simply because it perfectly evokes the era.
