Compelling story, richly-drawn characters and texture

Matthew Unstrung is a compelling story based upon the life of the Author's grandfather as a young adult in the Midwest around 1910. A story of rigidly-defined family relationships and family expectations, Matthew Unstrung is filled with richly-drawn characters, each a product of his or her place in time, and each who impact upon Matthew's life, however well-intended and perhaps misguided by today's standards, and who play a pivotal role in Matthew's journey into the darkness of mental illness and ultimately out again into the light.
