This Cleaving and This Burning: Volume 2

By J a Wainwright and J.A. Wainwright

A sweeping tale of friendship, ambition, and the hidden currents beneath creative genius.

Two aspiring writers, Miller Sark and Hal Pierce, born on the same day in the same year to parents with the same first names, grow up together and eventually gain national prominence as authors. As the years pass, the complex sexual identities of Miller and Hal undermine their intense private relationship, inflicting damage that cannot be undone by the distinction of their fiction and poetry.

Inspired by the lives and works of American literary giants Ernest Hemingway and Hart Crane, This Cleaving and This Burning reveals the passion and purpose behind masks of public reputation and creative expression. For readers of literary and historical fiction.
