The Hill: A Hemlock County Novel (The Hemlock County Novels)

Set during the 1960s in a small town in western Pennsylvania, The Hill swirls high school sports, young lust, and a forbidden student-teacher affair into a confrontation that divides a community. The Hill was David Poyer’s first novel, written as an experiment at the very beginning of his career. It prefigured characters, settings, and the themes of ethical choice and personal quandaries he would develop though the many books that followed: the later Hemlock County novels, set in the same remote area of Pennsylvania, the widely popular Dan Lenson novels, the Tiller Galloway diving adventures, and the Civil War at Sea trilogy, along with scores of short stories, novellas, and plays. Reedited for a modern audience, THE HILL serves as a retrospective on the genesis of a writer, along with a timeless look into the soul of a sensitive, disabled young man struggling toward adulthood and self-knowledge.
