This collection of essays shares the observations of an energetic boy living in anything-but-simple time: the mercurial decades of the 1960s and 1970s in Ann Arbor, Michigan. Running Around Town brings funny and quirky insights into gentle focus, with a lens on the small things in life. Part coming-of-age impressions, part family and societal portraits in miniature, part love story, is ultimately a tapestry of transformative everyday interactions, woven together with the cultural influences and music of the times.
