Labor Day
If you attended BEA or ALA this year, you might have heard us raving about Joyce Maynard’s latest, Labor Day, an in-house favorite. In a manner evoking Ian McEwan’s Atonementand Nick Hornby’s About a Boy, Joyce Maynard tells a story of love, sexual passion, painful adolescence, and devastating betrayal as seen through the eyes of a thirteen-year-old boy—and the man he later becomes—looking back on the events of a single long, hot, and life-altering weekend.
