The Lincoln Highway by Amor Towles,its set in Nebraska June 1954, 18yr old Emmett Watson has been released from a juvenille work farm after serving 22 months for involuntary manslaughter. He's released early because his dad died returns to their family farm to get his 8yr old brother, Billy who has been staying with neighbors Emmett has a plan for them to leave and go West to look for their mother
I started the book yesterday can't put it down,its long at 575 pgs This book in some ways reminds me of William Kent Krueger's terrific book'This Tenderland'
