Follow on Google News | Novel Written In Ernest Hemingway's Attic Mirrors The TimesNovel Written In Ernest Hemingways Attic Sums Up The Hard Times We Are Living Through. Novelist William Elliott Hazelgrove Spent Ten Years Finding New Voice.
By: Jim Turner "I had written three other novels, but I wanted to produce something about the times we are living in now. A writer sooner or later has to come to grips with his own time." That put Hazelgrove on a quest that stretched over ten years and a lot of hard times. "During all this my family is growing, we moved into another house and like the rest of the country we were struggling. I think something my father said to me resonated and that was I had to get myself into the book." Doing that was no easy task, but one day the writer started with a new voice that became the main character, Dale Hammer. "He's a middle class guy who is in danger of losing his home, trying to be a good father and provider and it all comes apart in one week. Rocket Man was the result, due to be published in December, but early reviews are already calling it a novel about the "death of the American Dream. "I have had men call me and tell me they laughed, because it is a satire, but also that they cried. That surprised me." http://www.youtube.com/ http://www.frontstreetreviews.com/ http://pageonelit.com/ http://www.billhazelgrove.com Press Release Submission By PressReleasePoint Contact: Jim Turner Pantonne Press 27 N.
