About this product

Product Information

aA work of stunning lyricism and intense originalitya(Mary Gordon, author of "Pearl"). From an award-winning short story writer comes this spare, lively, moving novel, quickly embraced by critics and readers, portraying the strangely celebrated and unsupervised childhood of four hippie offspring in the 1970s and 80s. Based on the authoras own upbringing, "Flower Children" tells the story of four children growing up in rural Pennsylvania, impossibly at odds with their surroundings. In time, as the sheltered utopia their parents have created begins to collapse, the children long for structure and restraintaand all their parents have avoided.
