About this audiobook
A renowned film critic returns to his small Ohio hometown for a high school reunion – and to make peace with his past. The town and most of his former classmates, including the school bully, have fallen on hard times, and the successful critic soon finds himself caught up in a culture clash of economics, sex and long-submerged resentment.
