Half Year Half Light
What if I don’t have any big dreams? The year is 1969 and things are changing faster than eighteen-year-old Edna Louise Walters can wrap her head around. Eddy is restless, coiled tightly inside, and full of desires for a boy who is also toeing the precipice of adulthood as he’s drawn into the environment of drag racing. Meanwhile, the world is charged with overwhelming events and revolution, and even in her small Virginia town, Eddy feels the currents running through her like electricity as she completes her final semester of high school and prepares for what lies ahead. Covering some of 1969’s most iconic moments, from the Beatles’ infamous rooftop concert, to space launches, to the University of California–Berkley’s Bloody Thursday, this smartly written piece of narrative nostalgia delves into the complex emotions of approaching adulthood during one of modern history’s most exciting and tumultuous years.
