A gritty, honest, and unforgettable novel about love, loss and redemption
Bowen’s Hollow is a reflective, emotionally charged coming-of-age drama that follows the life of Bowen Okai, a young man from the fictional village of Port Harding, Long Island. The story spans over a decade, weaving past and present as it explores the complexities of family, love, addiction, and recovery.
Told with lyrical intensity and grounded in realism, the novel is deeply introspective, laced with raw depictions of trauma, love, and the messy complexity of growing up in a working-class coastal town. Themes of loss, identity, masculinity, addiction, and healing are explored through richly drawn characters and vivid, often gritty, scenes.
