1974, a group of teenagers meet at an arts camp, unaware that this meeting will be the beginning of a long-term friendship. The road from youth to maturity, from dreams to practicality awaits them, but their friendship will only grow stronger. This is a story about the nature of talent, envy, money and power. And also about how easily everything changes throughout life. “Wulitzer wrote a fascinating novel about what to do if a brilliant and gifted person is not you. The story of a long friendship, in which some friends are more talented than others, resonates in the heart not because we have all ever looked at other people with white envy, acutely aware of our shortcomings. But because reading this novel, you understand how subjective other people’s exclusivity is and that your seemingly small life can also seem like the ultimate dream to someone.” (A. Zavozova)
