Following in the tradition of Mark Twain's cherished classics Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn, Time and The Place is a poignant story of a boy's coming of age in the America of the 1940s. Despised by his father, David --- known to all as Junior --- finds solace in his summers at his grandparents' farm, "The Place," where he confronts death, loss, love, and the tangled web of family history. Will Goede's previous novel, Quantrill, was a finalist for the B.C. Book Prize, while his story collection Life in Beijing was a finalist for the Edith Wilson Prize in literary fiction.
