Immortal Air, a Novel

Bright and promising as a student, George Cameron was sent to live with his sister in Boston while he attended a prestigious Latin school and later the Boston School of Law. It was what his mother wanted for him and his brother, Charley. It was what any well-bred family would want for an intelligent son destined for greater things than his humble New Glasgow, Nova Scotia, upbringing. Always at odds with the demands of his mother, George struggled to establish his own identity. Law clerk, journalist, poet, George's life often seemed to fall short of his mother's ever-present expectations and the fame he secreted in his private journals. In a mind churning with words and feelings, madness waited in the shadows as he tried in vain to silence the yearning for the childhood muse who haunted his thoughts and fuelled his passions.
