The Seventh Generation - Paperback

by Dave Digrazie (Author)

Shot from the cannon of the turbulent 1960'2, Ernie the Pro and his Great Lakes hometown are on trajectories that move anything but straight ahead into a new century. "The Seventh Generation" traces the interconnected paths of a popular mayor who struggles with his tragic flaws; three boys on different paths to manhood; and the fortunes of their city, the embers of whose past 'golden age' will give way to the possible birth of the next one. DiGrazie explores the longings of a generation or more of Americans who left the cities and towns of the Rust Belt for greener pastures. More than a political novel and more than a tale of one blue collar city's journey to find its place in post-industrial America. "The Seventh Generation'" explores how people and places grab us, become precious to us and never let us go.
