The Fourth of July

Kevin Dowd

4.9/5 (22013 ratings)

Description:Now available as an audio book."It's summer 1974 on an island off the coast of Connecticut, and all Jack Smith wants is a vacation like he enjoyed in his youth: swimming, sailing and sunshine. But Jack finds his summer plans quickly spiraling out of control. His estranged wife follows him to the island looking for money. The priest and constable are conspiring his ruin. And the local Lolita is intent upon seducing him. Jack suddenly has more problems than he can handle, and he deals with them the only way he knows how: with rum and romance, all leading to a calamitous Fourth of July in Kevin Dowd's hilarious first novel."Author's note: The story is told by the characters, each of whom see the same events through their own lens. As the story intensifies, opinions galvanize. The rumor mill gets working. A vacation community scraps over each others' business. Fireworks abound. Deep down, The Fourth of July is a story about how motivation and belief can color one's view, what happens when we disagree, and how small and comical the world is. But even if simple stuff like stepping on a rake makes you laugh, you'll love The Fourth of July. -KevinWe have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
