About the Book A Long Way From Chicago
A Long Way from Chicago by Richard Peck is a delightful coming-of-age novel set during the Great Depression. The story is told through a series of short stories, each representing a summer visit by siblings Joey and Mary Alice to their eccentric grandmother’s small town in Illinois.
The novel spans from 1929 to 1935, capturing the siblings’ adventures and the colorful characters they encounter. Each chapter is a self-contained story, narrated by Joey as he looks back on these events as an older man. The stories highlight the sharp contrast between their everyday city life in Chicago and the humorous, often unpredictable escapades they have with their strong-willed Grandma Dowdel in the countryside.
