From Publishers Weekly Payne's acclaimed novel tells of a troubled Southern family in North Carolina in the 1950s. Copyright 1994 Reed Business Information, Inc. From Library Journal Payne here introduces us to characters we care about: Jimmy, the star high school athlete who dreams about becoming a writer; May, the lovely young daughter of a prosperous family whose mother keeps telling her to "remember who you are"; and Joey, now 12, their unplanned son, conceived in the passion of teenage love. With honesty and compassion, these three narrate from their own perspectives the story of a failing marriage. May's parents are supportive; Jimmy's father kind but bowed by his jealous, sharp-tongued shrike of a wife. Payne ( Early from the Dance , LJ 9/1/89) beautifully portrays the 1950s beaches of North Carolina, and his description of this family, so full of love with all their faults, makes the reader ache for them. Highly recommended.- Marion Hanscom, SUNY-Binghamton Lib.Copyright 1993 Reed Business Information, Inc. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
