Self-described floater, sixteen-year-old Ricky Hawkins seeks refuge in the game he loves, basketball. As his home life frays, his two sisters intent on grieving their mother's recent death as his father pushes mercilessly forward, Ricky bonds with teammates from Lazy Point, the nearby enclave of fishermen, and Freetown, East Hampton's African-American neighborhood, charting a new course that leads into their homes with their own fractured families, and finally, inescapably, back to his own.
Empty roadways winding through farms and woodlands, open vistas of sea and sky-this is the backdrop, seductive and austere, against which Ricky Hawkins recounts the haunting tale of Amagansett '84.
