Opis

Anyone who enjoyed watching Andy Griffith's Mayberry, or a child of a 'Baby-boomer' would enjoy reading this book. This novel tells the story of a group of high school friends who keep in touch over a fifty-year span through a reunion of sorts. The novel is set in a little town of Clarks Summit, Pennsylvania. The characters gather at their hometown Pub on Wednesday night before Thanksgiving. They reminisce, cajole, and brag, revealing the events taking effect in their lives. The following morning they join others of the community at Thanksgiving Breakfast party preceding the annual High School game. This fascinating novel is poignant and humorous, but it's not all fun and frivolity. Each of the characters faces his or her personal challenges-from growing up and accepting responsibility of drug, alcohol, and gambling addiction. The reader is psychologically drawn in reflecting as the characters share raw their emotional struggles and their inner most feelings as they record their thoughts in a journal, giving insight into thoughts on life, love, friendship, and war. The characters will come across as honorable, funny, adorable, frustrating, infuriating, heartbreaking, and wise. The story is rich with humor, heart and hometown authenticity. Thanksgiving Breakfast celebrates the lasting bonds we all create and how friendships can buoy and strengthen you through the most complex days. It's a must for anyone who relishes a story for the ages.
