As a five year old enduring painful spinal taps in a Polio Ward to an adolescent experimenting with epic classroom disruptions, this collection of deeds maligned by misdeeds appears to have only one possible outcome: reform school.</p><p>Readers witness how growing up in the 1950s and 60s was negotiated in small towns with even smaller margins of supervision. Travel along route 9 from Stottville to Rouses Point, a micro village tucked away innocently in the northeast corner of the Lake Champlain Valley basin of New York State.</p><p>The early years in the Hudson Valley involve tales of exploration, cruelty, and friendship. After moving just south of the Canadian border, the adventures take on a downward spiral. Crawl through collapsed tunnels in a 19th century deserted fort, rummage the contents of railroad cars for cigarettes or discover how to survive multiple school suspensions.</p><p>The odyssey intensifies as consistent threads weave through a contentious relationship between father and son. Their bond is buttressed by an ever increasing repertoire of senseless acts bent on destroying all possibilities of post-high school success. Save for one prescient and observant English teacher, a fruitful future would have been squandered. Participate in the transformation of a non-compliant teenager to a tremulous college applicant; the result of one teacher believing in one outlier.</p>...4399362Reflections on a Father and His Son193193https://www.gandhi.com.mx/reflections-on-a-father-and-his-son-9798889825104/phttps://gandhi.vtexassets.com/arquivos/ids/4200676/image.jpg?v=638446493506600000InStockMXN99999DIEbook20239798889825104_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9798889825104_<p>Reflections on a Father and a Son is a journey that at times is gut wrenching while at other moments pause worthy.
