Winter of Our Discontent

Ethan Allen Hawley has lost the acquisitive spirit of his wealthy forebears, a long line of proud New England sea captains and Pilgrims. Scarred by failure, Ethan works as a grocery clerk in a store his family once owned. But his wife is restless and his teenage children troubled and hungry for the material comforts he cannot provide.

Ethan Allen Hawley si-a pierdut spiritul de achizitie al stramosilor sai bogati, un lung sir de mandri capitani de mare din New England si pelerini. Urmat de esec, Ethan lucreaza ca functionar de bacanie intr-un magazin pe care familia sa l-a detinut candva.
