The story

In the sleepy suburb of Grosse Pointe, Michigan, a group of neighborhood boys — now grown men — reflect upon their memories of the five Lisbon sisters, ages 13 to 17, in 1974.

Lisbon persuades her to allow a chaperoned party to make Cecilia feel better.

At the beginning of the school year, Lux, the most rebellious sister, enters into a secret, short-lived romance with Trip Fontaine, the school heartthrob.
