\u003cp\u003eItâs 1979 and Tom Buzby is thirteen years old and living in the small working- class city of Chatham, Ontario. So far, so normal. Except that Tomâs dad is the local tattoo artist, his mother is a born-again former stripper whoâs run off with the minister from the church where the pet store used to be, and his sister canât wait to leave town for good. And everyone along his daily newspaper route looks at him a little differently, this boy whoâs come back from the dead, who just might be the only one who understands the miraculous, heart-breaking mystery that is their lives.\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSet in the year that real newspaper headlines told of North Americaâs hard turn to the right, \u003cem\u003e1979 \u003c/em\u003eoffers a smalltown take on the buried lives of those who almost never make the news, and one boyâs attempt to make sense of it all.\u003c/p\u003e |
