Set in an elite boarding school in the early 1960’s a student deals with being an outsider among the privileged boys in the school culminating in a horribly bad decision he makes at the very end of his tenure. Interesting literary short novel with fictional visits to the school from Robert Frost and Ayn Rand – who was a complete bitch – great. Powerful ending with a switch in perspective from the ex-Dean of the school
PJH rating: ****
