About This Item
US: Bloomsbury Pub Ltd, 2005. Paperback. Good. At one prestigious American public school, the boys like to emphasise their democratic ideals - the only acknowledged snobbery is literary snobbery. O nce a term, a big name from the literary world visits and a contest takes p lace. The boys have to submit a piece of writing and the winner receives a private audience with the visitor. But then it is announced that Hemingway, the boys' hero, is coming to the school. The competition intensifies, and the morals the school and the boys pride themselves on - honour, loyalty an d friendship - are crumbling under the strain. Only time will tell who will win and what it will cost them.
Synopsis
Tobias Wolff lives in Northern California and teaches at Stanford University. He has received the Rea Award for excellence in the short story, the Los Angeles Times Book Prize, and the PEN/Faulkner Award.
