Picking up her story in the late '60s at age 21, Cathy Gildiner
whisks the reader through five years and three countries, beginning
when she is a poetry student at Oxford. Her education extended
beyond the classroom to London's swinging Carnaby Street, the
mountains of Wales, and a posh country estate.
A hilarious and moving follow-up to "The New York Times" bestselling "Too Close to the Falls." Catherine Gildiner shares the next chapter in a story that has already captivated many readers. It's 1960, and twelve-year-old Cathy McClure has just been thrown out of Catholic school for filling the holy water font with vodka. Hoping to give her a fresh start, Cathy's parents leave behind small-town Niagara Falls for suburban Buffalo. There, as the quaint world of 1950s America recedes into history, Cathy dives headfirst into the tumultuous new decade. But when tragedy strikes at home, Cathy-vandal, HoJo hostess, and civil rights demonstrator-must take on her most challenging role yet.
Welcome to the childhood of Catherine McClure Gildiner. It is the mid-1950s in Lewiston, New York, a sleepy town near Niagara Falls. Divorce is unheard of, mothers wear high heels to the beauty salon, and television has only just arrived.
