Now
for the big news. Just sent the next book
to the printer, BLUE ANTHEM WAILING:
"Allen
Frost’s first novel written in the mid-1980s
while still in college is an
apocalyptic, Old Testament
travel through 1960s America in a Cadillac with a
stained-glass windshield. You will go deep into this
country’s violent shadows
to get to the other side.
The moon, Vietnam, reservations and segregations,
myths, murder, money, guns and Russians, hot dogs
and holocaust, saints and
dreamers, a haunted road
where war is ever real but Amelia Earhart is flying
overhead. This is a heck of a book to start a writing
career!"
July 4th publication date is fitting. 232 pages.
I asked artist Fred Sodt to make the book look like
a Bible and he came through with a beautiful cover:
