Description:
“Eleanor is the new girl
in town, and she's never felt more alone. All mismatched clothes, mad red hair
and chaotic home life, she couldn't stick out more if she tried. Then she takes
the seat on the bus next to Park. Quiet, careful and, in Eleanor's eyes,
impossibly cool, Park has worked out that flying under the radar is the best
way to get by. Slowly, steadily, through late-night conversations and an
ever-growing stack of mixed tapes, Eleanor and Park fall in love. They fall in
love the way you do the first time, when you're 16, and you have nothing and
everything to lose. Set over the course of one school year in 1986, Eleanor and
Park is funny, sad, shocking and true - an exquisite nostalgia trip for anyone
who has never forgotten their first love.”
