Tobias Wolff

Old school - Tobias Wolff

• O stea, bazat pe 1 voturi

• The author of the genre-defining memoir This Boy's Life now gives readers his first novel--at once a celebration of literature and delicate hymn to a lost innocence of American life and art
• The protagonist of Tobias Wolff's shrewdly--and at times devastatingly--observed first novel is a boy at an elite prep school in 1960
• He is an outsider who has learned to mimic the negligent manner of his more privileged classmates
• Like many of them
• He wants more than anything on earth to become a writer
• But to do that he must first learn to tell the truth about himself
• The agency of revelation is the school literary contest
• Whose winner will be awarded an audience with the most legendary writer of his time
• As the fever of competition infects the boy and his classmates
• Fraying alliances
