Opis

Marcus Andrews seeks glory in his small hometown of Eaden, Montana. He is entering his senior year of high school and has yet to attain the athletic fame that he has dreamed of his entire life. He is further burdened by his father's mental illness and confusing preoccupations. When Eaden loses its final football playoff game to a rival school, Marcus sees the upcoming basketball season as his last chance to claim immortality within his community.

When his history teacher assigns a history writing project, Marcus reaches out to George O'Sullivan, an old man known for his knowledge of local Native American history as well as for rumors about his sexuality. As Marcus's friendship with George grows throughout Marcus's final year of high school, secrets are revealed that will change his life and impact his entire family.

"Photographs from Eaden" follows Marcus's twelve-year journey from central Montana to San Francisco. The story is one of seeking adventure, understanding what it means to be a part of a closely knit community, and finding the value and strength of family.
