As his perfect year is torn apart (falls apart?), Scotty begins to act out during school and takes a series of increasingly wild actions to try to win his mother backand, when that doesnt work, to replace her.Funny and deeply affecting, An Ocean in Iowa traces Scottys desperate attempt to hold on to his childhood while the foundation of his family disintegrates. As Scottys year as a seven-year-old flies byand the dreaded eight approachesHedges explores how Scotty sheds his childhood in a one-eighty of the year he hoped would be so perfect. Beautifully written, and with Hedgess careful attention to period detail, this compelling coming-of-age novel sets the private turmoil of a disintegrating family against the backdrop of the Vietnam War and the turbulent 1960s.
