    Paperback (Independently published, Nov. 30, 2018)
    Booth Tarkington's wildly successful novel Seventeen satirizes the vagaries of American adolescence. Though 17-year-old protagonist William Sylvanus Baxter is awkward, tactless, and often less than likable, Tarkington's insightful—and hilarious—take on teenage life and love is sure to please readers who appreciate top-notch humor writing.

    Booth Tarkinton was an American novelist and dramatist best known for his Pulitzer Prize-winning novels The Magnificent Ambersons and Alice Adams. Seventeen is a tale of youth and summertime romance. William Baxter's seventeenth summer is spent in the throes of first love. William is smitten with Miss Lola Pratt, a visitor who speaks with a babyish lisp--mostly to her dog Flopit. He's also tormented by his ten-year-old sister Jane, who delights in embarrassing him in public.
