Book Overview

From the latter days of pen-and-ink,
Re-live the adventures and travails
of an energetic young man
Finding his way in foreign territory,
In life as well as culture,
During a year of 'study' abroad...

After graduating from high school in the late 1980s, Peter Salten moved from the US to Denmark for a year of study abroad. The letters he wrote to his mom while in Denmark are collected in Adolescent Abroad. In these open and honest letters Peter describes his reactions to the psychological and social challenges facing a maturing adolescent, one on his own abroad, while trying to maintain a sense humor about his situation and conduct...

Marie Salten, Peter's mom, holds a graduate degree in counseling psychology. In her introduction to Adolescent Abroad, she describes Peter's early life, and the development of their close relationship. Marie also provides commentary for each of Peter's letters, to give factual, psychological and social context to his thoughts, feelings, experiences.
