Discover the family saga that German language readers embraced back in 2002. Hanna Street is a perfect slice of Americana, celebrating small town life during one of the most popular and colorful eras in U.S. history.
DK Raymer's debut novel was optioned for film in 2001. The project was abandoned when the events of 9-11 took the country in a different direction. Editor Maria Duerig bought German translation rights for Bertlesmann, and the book was published in Germany under the name Das Rosenhaus..
Hanna Street wrestles with issues that still make headlines today - complex family drama, the hardships of military families, child abuse, suicide and mental health treatment, elder care and multigenerational families. This family saga offers a poignant and nostalic look at the relationships that bind us together, love lost and found, and the choices that shape our lives.
About the Story...
When elderly widow Mimi Wilson decides to sell her beloved but rundown home, she sets in motion a chain of events that will forever alter the lives of those she loves. Charming Appleton, Indiana, will get a brand new Git & Go in the spot where her house once stood. Mimi will get to spend her Golden Years in Florida with her daughter, June. And her granddaughter, Kate, will get another chance to find happiness with her high school sweetheart.
Set between 1952 and 1977, Hanna Street draws readers into an era when there was no such thing as political correctness. No one had ever heard of a smoke free community, let alone electric cars. Traveling carnivals were the summer's big entertainment, and CB radios were as popular as today's cell phones.
Hanna Street will have readers wishing they could live in fictional Appleton... if only for the summer.
