Passing Go

“Ken Schiff’s Passing Go. . . . is an altogether beautiful job, tender, touching, frightening—an original—I do hope and trust it gets the attention it deserves—I read it straight through.” – Walker Percy, two-time National Book Award winner “Mr. Schiff catches with beautiful simplicity the emotional range of his hero—from violent desperation to hopeful escape into ‘open waters.’” – The New York Times Book Review “There is a youthful lyricism and longing in much of the writing that will be especially appealing to young readers of Mr. Schiff’s first novel.” – Publisher’s Weekly “Voted one of the Best Books For Young Adults, 1972 by the Young Adult Services Division of the American Library Association.” – Library Journal
