Description:
Vibrant and creative, Kathy is determined to use her talents in a way that will make her stand out from the rest of her high school crowd. Cheerleader, actress, writer, folksinger--Kathy tries on all of these roles and attempts to fit in with different groups of students on her way to finding out who she really is. Although Long Time Passing is set in the late 1960s and is filled with political and social commentary from the time, the story rings with contemporary appeal. Author Linda Crew pulls off something that few young-adult authors dare attempt: she writes convincingly about a strong, well-adjusted character with little buried angst to hold her back from the people and dreams in which she believes. Kathy, bubbling with energy and hope for her future, will energize readers--especially girls dazzled by possibilities in their own lives.
