Memoir written by Susan Gilman. It explains a generation that is "neither Lost nor Beat, Silent nor Xed."

Especially enjoyed her account of her growing up years. "While the adults around us might have been singing "Joy to the World" and reading aloud stories like George Washington Carver: Father of Peanut Butter! a lot of kids in the neighborhood were simply interested in kicking each other's ass."

Humorous and timely - a good read!
