This completely revised edition is a superlative coming-of-age story about teenagers preparing to break out of their small-town lives: Wade, the local sports hero; Jesse, his friend—the Indian kid and mythical athlete who applies his own rules to sports and life; and Lorna, Wade’s sweetheart, who knows there’s no hope in Calamus for a bright, independent girl. The river rushes past the town, linking the three friends with their pasts, their plans, and the world beyond.If you would like to know more about this title:
