Raw Earth Ink is proud to present Ray Van Horn, Jr.’s semi-autobiographical novel, Revolution Calling.
From the back:Every generation faces inevitable trials in the great proving ground of high school. The polarizing definition of ‘cool’ from a teenager’s world sets its own parameters, often hotly contested amongst a school body’s diverse subdivisions.
REVOLUTION CALLING, from veteran music and film journalist Ray Van Horn, Jr., is a retrospective look at high school as he knew it from the alienating stance of heavy-metal subculture in the late 1980’s. As a semi-autobiography, REVOLUTION CALLING is an outsider’s tale for Generation X, an examination of the will to belong on one’s own terms, even when the stakes turn violent.
This is a story of inner and outer turmoil where persecution leads to comeuppance. The path to acceptance in one’s life often takes turbulent paths. For Jason Hamlin and Rob Martino, this is a call-to-arms for their own self-worth and moreover, their self-preservation.
