Jamie Trotter is growing up in Waterloo, Ontario in the 1960s and 1970s.
Outwardly he leads an ideal life: he has loving parents, goes to church
and school, and plays hockey. When he is ten years old, however, a joke
that backfires starts him on an unexpected path to self-discovery. By
turns tragic and wildly funny, Driving Lessons is a Canadian
coming-of-age novel in the rich tradition that runs from W. O. Mitchell
to Miriam Toews. |
