Father's Day

<p>Buzz Bissinger's twins were born three minutes--and a world--apart. Gerry the older one is a graduate student preparing to become a teacher. His brother Zach is a savant challenged by serious intellectual deficits but also blessed with rare talents: an astonishing memory a dazzling knack for navigation and a reflexive honesty that can make him both socially awkward and surprisingly wise.</p><p>One summer striving to understand the twenty-four-year-old son who remains in many ways a mystery Buzz convinces Zach to join him on a cross-country road trip. As father and son drive from Philadelphia to Los Angeles revisiting all the places they have lived together Buzz learns to see the world through Zach's eyes. <em>Father's Day </em>is a powerful account of this journey and a universal tale of the bond between parents and children.</p><p>"Grade: A . . .
