Going All the Way
This is another title being reissued as a movie tie-in. The plot of this odd coming-of-age story follows army buddies Sonny Burns and Gunner Casselman, who return to their small hometown to find that life there is the pits. LJ's reviewer found the book flawed but noted that "the vacuous milieu and grubby, banal conversations are reproduced with fidelity, and the novel is depressingly believable" (LJ 7/70).Copyright 1997 Reed Business Information, Inc.
