Sobre IBD

It's spring, 1964. Beatle mania crashes the American shores. The Vietnam War and push for black civil rights divide the nation. Tommy Mack and his proud, beat-up, poverty stricken family have traded the freshness of Appalachia for a malodorous chemical plant in the suburbs of a small, east coast metropolis. Surrounded by traffic, congestion, and as much culture shock as one can imagine, they put down new roots-and pray for the best.

  • The Punitive Turn in American Life
    Michael S. Sherry
