Barr's Meadow

An adventure about boys...

Eldot presents a fresh new novel for adults. The coming of age is embedded in an episode two-week summer camp full of variety and fun.

Julian kept two scrapbooks. This special one has not been shared until now. It responds to the nostalgic pull; the happy days of youth are special. Perhaps you'd like to relive some memories, or discover ones that were missed. This is a peek at the world of 1962, before the Internet and cell phones-when you learned by discovering things on your own and interacted with real people.

• Did you miss the chance to go to summer camp? This story will fill the gap.
• Did you go to camp but it was boring, or too short? This will make up for that.
• Did you go to camp, but were too inhibited to try all those things? Here is a memory for you to cherish.
• Or was your camp experience fabulous and terrific? See how this one compares!

This story about a teen boy discovering love is not the usual coming of age drama-this one banishes the prejudice and the bad guys and shows the comic side. A lot of boys frolic, experiment, and discover wonderful things. There are surprises, fantasies and lots of fulfilled expectations.

Julian's Private Scrapbook is meant for mature readers; the purpose is to look at underlying present day social issues from a new perspective: the past, and the positive. Barr's Meadow is the first in a five novel series.
