About the book
Phoenix, Arizona. 1962. JFK has been elected and the Cuban Missile Crisis shakes the United States. Fond of vast spaces, Scott Hatford is a young dreamer who treasures short moments of grace with a loving mother, and tries to escape the violence of a broken father returned from the war. One October night, exacerbated by jealousy, the father's fury transforms into wild intoxication. Mother and son decide to flee to New Mexico. Their fates are sealed on Route 66. Far From Phoenix is the odyssey of a teenager in the American West in the '60s. A story of hope, redemption and the power of dreams.
