Family Life Stories

I couldn’t be happier about the response from readers about my second novel SEA ESCAPE.  Last Thursday, the novel was chosen by the PBS television program Greater Boston as a best of summer pick.

(Be sure to scroll down to the video called summer books)

In big over the weekend news, I was elated to learn SEA ESCAPE has been chosen as a top ten must-read summer book by Entertainment Weekly.

Here’s a snippet of the review-

“…a multi-generational novel that plucks the heartstrings like Django Reinhardt.”

It’s an embarrassment of riches with this Patriot Ledger feature on my work.  And this great review of SEA ESCAPE on my first stop on my TLC Book Tour.

Check out this round-up in the Boston Globe of Grub Street writers publishing this month. Congrats to fellow writing instructor Michelle Hoover on the publication of her acclaimed novel THE QUICKENING.

If you’d like to learn more about the story behind the story of SEA ESCAPE, how I found my parents’ love letters and crafted a fictional story around them, listen to my interview with Pat Farnack on WCBS-NY radio.
