Great Balls of Fire

Great Balls of Fire is the hilarious autobiography by brain surgeon Bill O’Callagh and is one of the definitive accounts of coming-of-age in teh 50’s. It captures the humor and pain that we all experienced as teenagers living in a world controlled by those older and less wise. It is a journey from puberty to manhood, a chronicle of a special time in history wehn teenagers grew up not knowing whether they would lose their virginity on the next date or their lives to the A-bomb.
