FROM AND TO IBD

Sinopse

SheâÇÖs a naïve, middle-class Black-American battling rats in Africa and having an affair with a cute but dumb white Peace Corps volunteer. HeâÇÖs a budding Minneapolis journalist with a fixation for sleazy movies and tasteless TV. Then thereâÇÖs Susan--an outspoken, fiercely loyal, recent college grad whose fiancé is quite possibly gay. ItâÇÖs the mid-1980s. Reagan is still the 'Teflon' president. AmericaâÇÖs watching 'Dynasty,' 'ThatâÇÖs Incredible,' and 'Falcon Crest.' EveryoneâÇÖs dancing to Michael JacksonâÇÖs 'Thriller.' Joan Rivers is Johnny CarsonâÇÖs favorite guest host and the general public is just beginning to learn of AIDS. If youâÇÖre African-American, white, male, female, gay or straight, this touching, funny coming of age memoir told through highly entertaining and poignant letters from and to West Africa, Minneapolis, Chicago and Kansas City will touch your soul. 'From and To' provides a candid account of Peace Corps life as it celebrates the collective experience of growing up in the eighties.
