BARSTOW LITTLE HAS BEEN RE-WRITTEN. The revised version recently won the Writer's Digest 8th Guide To Literary Agents Contest.
Barstow Little is introduced to death at an early age, and this harsh introduction shapes the man he becomes. From the rural landscape of Jackson, "Anytown" America, where men die lonely, solitary deaths in the back alleys of the 1930's, to the pastoral fields of a war-ravaged France, Barstow overcomes the hurdles and tribulations he faces--in war and in his relationships--until he himself meets his maker. But along the way, the person he becomes is far from the cherubic, innocent, shy boy he starts out as, fishing the streams of the Little Bull River with Mitchell Carter and hiking the shaded, craggly Flat Irons where black bear and mountain lion hide in the darkness of nature.
