Publisher's summary
By Award-Winning Author, J.T. Blossom. "We follow “Coolidge,” a perceptive, thoughtful, and sensitive young man as he is initiated into the hierarchical world of power through humiliation at a summer stable job in Wisconsin. Great material for discussions with tweens/teens on the pressures of conformity (particularly around risk taking, drugs/alcohol, and misogyny), and the need to stay true to one’s self." ★★★★★ by Kim Bateman
A story of exploitation and abuse in the stunning rural beauty of Central Wisconsin.
Thirteen-year old Michael is dumped off to work at a riding stable run by wild and unsupervised young men. Abused and misunderstood, he faces many daunting challenges and has to grow up fast. Set in the late sixties, the hierarchical and exploitive domination of the horse boys over workers, animals, and women accentuates Michael's confusion about his identity and what it means to be a man. Will his growing sense of independence and the beauty of caring for horses in rural Wisconsin be enough to counteract the lure of the hyper-masculine forces that surround him? An insightful novel about the cultural roots that sparked the Me-Too Movement.
