Sobre IBD

The year is 1965, and Jack Timins, born and raised Catholic and educated for twelve years in Catholic schools, is going out into the big, wide, secular world. After his summer job as an assistant manager at a municipal pool, Jack is off to college leaving 'the woman he loves' and his childhood behind. At college, Jack must handle a host of new and unsettling experiences-hazing by upperclassmen; a power-crazed dorm counselor; an atheist roommate; an unanticipated sexual awakening; and the tragic death of a loved one. He also delights in discovering his love of theatre and acting-reveling in his ability to step outside himself. Frosh is Jack Timins’ crucial, life-altering, eye-opening, and heart-breaking year of self-discovery. By turns funny, heart-warming, and sad, Frosh is the story of how Jack discovers that our lives often don’t unfold as we had planned.
