When Sean learns that Lari Edison, owner of the Haunted Bookshop, his childhood comic book store has died, he is transported back to the autumn of 1975, when his ten-year-old preoccupations with great white sharks and superheroes were upended by his stumbling upon information that could both harm his family and ignite tensions across his working-class town. While Sean struggles with his newfound power, the mystery around him, filled with unforgettable characters, unfurls, to create a sweeping story of childhood imagination, hard choices and a vanished way of life along the fishing docks of the Fraser River. In The Marvels of Youth, Tim Bowling has given readers a powerful, mesmerizing novel, much like the river that flows through it.
