An Unfinished Season Paperback - 2005
by Ward Just
Set in Eisenhower-era Chicago, this brilliant work evokes a city, an epoch, and a shift in ideals through the closely observed story of 19-year-old Wilson Ravan.
Summary
Set in Eisenhower-era Chicago, An Unfinished Season brilliantly evokes a city, an epoch, and a shift in ideals through the closely observed story of nineteen-year-old Wilson Ravan. In his summer before college, Wils finds himself straddling three worlds: the working-class newsroom where he's landed a coveted job as a rookie reporter, the whirl of glittering North Shore debutante parties where he spends his nights, and the growing cold war between his parents at home. With unparalleled grace, Ward Just brings Wils's circle to radiant life. Through his finely wrought portraits of a father and son, young lovers, and newsroom dramas, Just also stirringly depicts an American poltical era.
First line
THE WINTER of the year my father carried a gun for his own protection was the coldest on record in Chicago.
