Were you Student Body President? Cheerleader captain? Or the girl nobody asked to the prom? Or a guy nobody wanted to eat lunch with? Were you an "innie" or an "outie"? These are some of the questions raised in Is There Life After High School?. After interviewing hundreds of people across America, obscure and famous, successful and unsuccessful, after reading countless magazine articles, books, and scholarly treatises, after listening to stacks of records, watching television and movies, and after attending all manner of reunions (from a fifth to a fiftieth), Ralph Keyes has come to the conclusion that Kurt Vonnegut was right — high school is "closer to the core of the American Experience than anything else I can think of." Is There Life After High School? takes us cruising through the hallways of our high school memories. According to Keyes those memories are a) enduring, b) pleasurable, c) painful, d) all of the above. He makes keenly perceptive observations on why high school keeps its grip on the imagination and behavior of so many American adults. A closing section is of inestimable value for those racked with high school fever — "101 Ways to Get High School Off Your Back." Since its publication in 1976 Is There Life After High School? has become an iconic book. A musical based on the book that opened on Broadway 1982 is still produced in theaters around the country and world.
