A New York Times Notable Book: ';An extraordinarily moving portrait of the complexities and confusions of familial love' (Michiko Kakutani, The New York Times). From the author of King Leopold's Ghost, Half the Way Home is a compelling memoir about a complicated father-son relationship. Adam Hochschild never used the words ';Dad' or ';Daddy,' just ';Father.' The only son of Harold Hochschildthe head of a multinational mining corporationAdam always felt as though his father remained purposefully at a distancea demanding, immovable pillar to be respected and sometimes feared. Here, in lyrical prose, Hochschild recounts his privileged upbringing at his family's estate in the Adirondacks, his coming-of-age in the tumultuous 1960s, and his enduringly conflicted relationship with his father. But as a boy grows into a man, times change and perspectives shift, and a chance for reconciliation emerges from the space between. Hailed by Studs Terkel as ';an exquisite memoir of a boy growing up,' Half the Way Home is ultimately the story of a father and his son, and the unexpected peace finally made between them. ';It is a primer on the upper class and on class itself, a series of meditations on the burden of wealth to the liberal consciousness and even a commentary on what it means to be a Jew in America.... This is a fine and moving book' (People).
