Front Street Review says A MAINE CHRISTMAS CAROL by novelist Philip Harris is a dose of hope!
October 16, 2006 (Press Release) --
"A Maine Christmas Carol is a moving replay of the Christmas classic. It comes to life in its portrayal of the character of TJ, a realistic portrait of a disenfranchised youth. He struggles to deal with the loss of his father and fears loving his family in case he loses them also. By becoming totally self absorbed he only has to think about himself, by putting down others he maintains his wall of uncaring. The author, Philip Harris, has managed to create a sympathetic, understandable character even as TJ scares the elderly and young children alike.
A strong, thorough and meaningful plot is enveloped within of these pages. At around 100 pages it is a poignant and timely reminder of the meaning of caring in today’s world. Its well chosen words enable a full length novel to inhabit the pages of a novella. In the guise of the well loved tale it reminds us of the effects of modern life, its drugs, wars and poverty, on its people. It gives us the hope and optimism that is much needed in our contemporary world.
This will be a holiday treat for Maine and the country. Put up the holiday lights of all nations, light the fireplace and curl up with this dose of hope."
Barb Radmore, Editor, FRONT STREET REVIEW
Mr. Harris, also co-author of the new controversial WAKING GOD says, "I hope that this new novel will provide a ray of hope to troubled teens and families that are trying to cope with the pressures of a world gone crazy."
The novel will be rleased by Capri Publishing on December 12th
