Love, sex, adolescence, Kate Winslet, Josh Brolin…need I say more?
Just finished Joyce Maynard’s novel, Labor Day. Taking place in a small town in New Hampshire, at the beginning of Labor Day weekend, the story is told through the eyes of a young teenager. His divorced, emotionally fragile mother is his only company and life changes drastically when a mysterious man asks for help. Over the course of a long weekend, some of life’s most valuable lessons are learned.
How exciting to learn that her novel is currently being developed as a motion picture that Paramount Pictures will distribute, directed by Jason Reitman and starring Kate Winslet and Josh Brolin. Production is scheduled to begin this summer in Massachusetts.
