Produktinformationen zu „Boys Like That (ePub)“
Hope Edelman's iconic book, Motherless Daughters-in print for nearly twenty years-told the story of losing her mother to cancer at age seventeen. Now, in her first original e-book, Edelman chronicles the events leading up to and immediately following that crucial event. Set against the backdrop of suburban New York in the early 1980s, "The Sweetest Sex I Never Had" and "Bruce Springsteen and the Story of Us" tell the stories of a good girl gone raw and the two "bad" boys she turned to for escape. Part coming-of-age story and part cultural critique, Boys Like That weaves together the angst of adolescence, the discovery of sex, and the solace of rock and roll to create two unforgettable short memoirs about the exquisite pain of young love and the life-altering nature of loss.
