As I Await the Hunt

By Valerie Hockert

Book Overview

How completely can a quiet moment of isolation force a man to confront the trajectory of his entire life?

The human mind is a potent tool. While it possesses the immense power to motivate you toward future success, it holds an equal, unforgiving ability to dredge up deeply buried sad thoughts, unspoken doubts, and heavy regrets. In this evocative and deeply relatable work of realistic fiction, one man's ordinary afternoon transforms into a profound psychological crossroads.

George sits entirely alone on a high tree stand, waiting in absolute silence for the hunt to begin.

But as the hours stretch on, his mind comes alive, racing in every unexpected direction. He begins to meticulously dissect and reflect on the pillars of his existence-his relationship with his wife, the development of his children, his bonds with lifelong friends, and the daily grind of his job. Instead of finding peace, George discovers his thoughts are completely consumed by a tidal wave of heavy personal regrets.

Trapped above the ground, he is forced to look at a terrifying question: Is he simply drifting through a life entirely devoid of direction?

Written with the raw intimacy of a personal memoir, "As I Await the Hunt" is a captivating, thought-provoking narrative about the internal battles we fight when the distractions of the world are stripped away. What deep-seated truths drove George to question his choices, and what monumental shift happens the moment he finally steps down from the tree?
