LATEST NOVEL ON SALE NOW

By Olivene Godfrey

CATCH THE BRASS RING
On one level, Catch The Brass Ring, is a story of love and marriage.  On another, it symbolizes the struggles of Americans, mostly Southerners, during World War II and the post war years as they broke out of roles that had been assigned them by time, place and social class.
The novel centers on Nickie, a young romantic girl and Chris, an older Navy man, who fall in love during World War II.  Interwoven in the novel are scenes that depict the World War II home-front in the Unites States, the rapid development of plastics in industry and medicine in the 1940's and 1950's, the alcohol addiction of Chris, a brilliant scientist, the southern culture of the era and portraits of the professions of the major characters.
The novel is set in Chattanooga, Tennessee, and North Georgia, with portions set in New York City, San Francisco, and Treasure Island, Florida.
If anyone is interested in my latest novel, it can be purchased through Amazon, Kindle.  See you next time.  Comments welcome.  (As told to Tam)
