Silver Street: The Short Cut

By Gary Turcotte

Pleasant memories of awkward years gone by

Written in the voice of Garrrett, a sixteen-year-old social misfit. By chance he befriends a family new to town. The family (The Tamworths) have been home schooled, but since they moved to Dover, New Hampshire, the parents decide to enter their children into public school. The Tamworths are also social misfits even though they excel at all they encounter. Garrett begins to abandon his old thoughts on many things. He rethinks his religion and he rethinks his relationship with his family, especially his father. The boys grow closer together and they share the same feats and foes. Garrett and his friend Carlton get caught up in the rising popularity of the Tamworths. Carlton's parents are divorcing and this added crisis puts a lot of tension on the friendship between Garrett and Carlton. Garrett experiences the death of a close friend. Love, laughs, fights and freedom are woven together to bring a refreshing look at a fond era.
