PAUL GRIFFIN
Author and King's Park native PAUL GRIFFIN will be
speaking about and signing his new novel, Ten Mile
River.
In Griffin's debut novel, best friends
Ray and Jose are not your typical thirteen-year-olds. They've
escaped foster care and juvenile detention centers to live on
their own together in an abandoned building located near
Manhattan Park called Ten-Mile River. With no use for school
or families, street-smart Jose and bookish, introspective Ray
have everything they need in each other. They're as close as
brothers until they fall in love with the same girl, and
tension creeps into their relationship as they try to find
identities separate from each other.
Paul will be
speaking at Book Revue about the new novel, and about how
aspiring writers can go about getting their foot in the door
of the publishing industry. The event is put on in cooperation
with the Huntington restaurant Canterbury Ales, which will
offer a special promotion in conjunction with the signing.
