For Whom the Book Tells (Four Fathers, Vol. 1)

(Little Evie Publishing) This novel follows the history of four families whose lives ultimately converge in the author’s hometown of Barrington, Ill., during the sixties. With poetry, music, and philosophical musings, this book also covers great geographical territory, ranging from the Midwest to Hawaii. While its scope is broad, it also celebrates its singular characters and their particular place in time. This is the first volume in an intended eight; the next volume is “Huckleberry Friend.”
