"If you are into realistic fiction like The Catcher in the Rye, A Separate Peace, or other boarding school books, then you should start with Cutting of Harp Strings."
- Dr. Steven Bickmore, YA Literature Scholar

One season of youth can echo across an entire lifetime.

Set in 1973 at a traditional boys' boarding school nestled in the mountains, two unlikely teens find an extraordinary lifeline in one another. Eli is reserved, cautious, and conventional; Aiden is bohemian, impulsive, and free-spirited. They couldn't be more different. Yet amidst the rigid discipline, unspoken campus pressures, and the untamed woods that surround them, a profound friendship blossoms.

When Aiden's impetuous nature leads to a promise that shatters their world, Eli is forced to reconstruct a future from the ruins of everything he thought he knew.

Narrated by an older Eli looking back on his youth, Cutting of Harp Strings is a poignant coming-of-age story that weaves together themes of fierce loyalty, heartbreak, and resilience. Rich with vivid prose and unforgettable characters, it is an evocative journey through the joys and tragedies of growing up-and the enduring power of true love.

"An emotionally moving saga." - Midwest Book Review
"A poignant reminder of the true meaning of friendship..." - Charles Tabb, author of Floating Twigs
