Description
Take a trip back to the 1960s and experience the significant events of this decade through the eyes of Patrick Hanley -- a young teenager desperately trying to grow up in a sea of confusion. At no time in recent American History have the different factions of our society been so polarized. This time period was a true test of the American way of life and the principles the United States was founded on. MacArthur Park is a novel about growing up in the sixties -- about six kids discovering themselves and about the turbulent times they grew up in. It's about how some of them survived and how some of them didn't. It's about how the war affected them and forced them to make decisions that would shape the rest of their lives.
