Hearts in Atlantis (1999) is a collection of two novellas and three short stories by Stephen King, all connected to one another by recurring characters and taking place in roughly chronological order.
The stories are about the Baby Boomer Generation, specifically King's view that this generation (to which he belongs) failed to live up to its promise and ideals. Significantly, the opening epigraph of the collection is the Peter Fonda line from the end of Easy Rider: "We blew it." All of the stories are about the 1960s and the war in Vietnam, and in all of them the members of that generation fail profoundly, or are paying the costs of some profound failure on their part.
In this collection:
I love this book, it is actually two novellas, named Low Men in Yellow Coats, and Hearts in Atlantis.
I suppose it is a coming of age book in a sense for both novellas. from 11 years old to 12 and college-age to a few years after that.
It is also a good book in that it references some other King epics. I recommend it for Stephen King fans.
