Summary
As a teenager, Canadian poet George Bowering lived the life of an ordinary boy: he loved baseball, read Westerns, held a part-time job, and fantasized about girls and women. When he was fifteen, George found himself vying for the affections of his first love, the girl from the wrong side of the tracks, and one of his high school teachers. Set in the South Okanagan Valley in the fifties, this memoir captures the delirious chaos that takes place as a boy becomes a man. Includes sex. 2012
