Local Author Tells Quite a Tale

Local Author Tells Quite a Tale

Maureen Landress

This is a tale rich with the kind of characters that can only have come from years of observing human nature. It delves into those deeply rooted fears of growing older, and looking back to see what kind of mark you might have left on the world.

With a subtle, slow Southern style, O'Brien quickly draws you into the story of a quiet man who divides his time between the land and the sea. He lets you see beneath the surface, and into the mind, of a man caught in the limbo of a life half lived. A life about to be changed by fate, storms and dreams.

Weaving together words, like the silken threads of a fine tapestry, O'Brien draws you ever deeper into Fountain Lindsey's world. Along with Fountain, you hear the siren call of the ever restless sea. You feel his desperate loneliness. You gnaw with hunger at his insatiable craving for adventure. You become ensnared in his search to find a place for himself in an ever-changing world that is spiraling out of his control.

Once you have turned the final page, and closed the cover, this story will continue to linger in the back of your mind. It might even have you taking a second look at your own life and dreams.
