A True Story of Friendship
by Bob Greene
A highly personal and moving true story of memory and friendship from the New York Times bestselling author of Duty and Be True to Your School.
"Unfortunately, the author's dusty attic of lost Americana is cluttered with clichés, nostalgia and overly sentimental yearnings." - PW.
"Readers who enjoyed Joan Didion's The Year of Magical Thinking will find Greene's writing to be more wistful and plainspoken but similarly rewarding." - Library Journal.
