Then, Again

by Ivan Sutherland

Along the coast of Lake Superior in a rapidly growing port city called Duluth is Alex a misanthropic journalist who pens an article that leads to the destruction of a building, a meeting with a charismatic titan of industry, and the idea for a grand plan that he hopes will change his fortunes forever.Drawing his only friend into the plot, a good natured scion of the upper class by the name of John Faribault, his ambition inadvertently gets them tangled in the complex web of nightclub syndicates and political conspiracy, where passion drives the stakes higher and higher.

Then, Again is the unforgettable debut of a contemporary American voice that marries refined narrative technique with lyrical prose in a story about friendship, love, and the human spirit that elicits laughter as often as it does the melancholy of our age.

[Tyler Sargent · Rating 4 out of 5]

A solid debut novel that reads well. The pacing is engaging and the plot moves well throughout the book even if it does feel like the final act wraps up too quickly. The characters are well written and relatable with themes that read like a classic novel.
