Beschreibung
1950: two boys are spending the summer in Cape Cod. Left to their own devices, they forge an unlikely friendship with artists Jo and Edward Hopper. She, passionate and often irrational, suffers from obsessive jealousy. He, withdrawn and depressed, becomes besotted by one of the boys'aunts. A novel of loneliness and regret, the legacy of World War II and the ever-changing concept of the American Dream. A brilliant portrait of America.
