Summary
Movin' On was shortlisted for Random House's YouWriteOn Book of the Year.
February 1958. The Worley's, a family of four, are on the way down to Florida. They're moving there in a last-ditch effort to try to save the dysfunctional parents' all-but-shattered marriage. But the two small sons in the back seat have their doubts. They've seen Walter and Wanda fight too many times. They know all too well that when they really got going, they could make Stanley and Stella Kowalski look like June and Ward Cleaver. And being true to form, they start fighting again shortly after leaving their New York apartment.
For almost the entire two-day drive to Florida, young Tommy and Theodore can only sit there brokenhearted as their parents bombard each other with a litany of insults, threats, and expletives. But, cruel as spouses can sometimes be, it doesn't always mean that they don't love each other. There still could be hope for the Worleys.
