About Come And Get It

A PAGE-TURNING ROMANCE DEBUT in the tradition of J. D. Salinger, 'Come and Get It' tells the unusual story of a 15 year old introverted swimmer who meets Sam, a 35 year old man. What happens between them changes their world. The novel is certainly open to a lot of controversy, but what is most striking is the author's ability to understand an adolescent mind and capture youthful emotion. The hero-narrator is frank and clueless. His troubles are not of his own making, but of surroundings that are out of joint. Like most 15 year olds, he is unsure of himself and bewildered, yet his standpoint is genuine and filled with wisdom. He recites his story in a blatant, witty, black-humored way, and will take you by surprise as you follow him in his search for happiness and meaning. "Come and Get It is Jason Love's seductive psalm to the wanderings of a young man's body and soul. The idyllic New England settings are so vivid and breezy that you will find yourself in the deepest corners of the human heart, wondering just when you veered off the garden path. Go and get it now." - Anne Levine of The Anne Levine Show, Author of "Dead Air: Radio Free Mortal" "Come and Get It is an honest, poignant and revealing coming of age novel that addresses a teenager's struggle with the trials and tribulations of adolescence. Jason Love's presentation of the protagonist, allows us to sense his (the protagonist's) confusion while joining him on his journey towards resolve. A worthy, significant debut." - Ruth S. Almog, Translator and Editor "Come and Get It is personal, exploratory, and revealing. It feels as though Holden Caulfield has been resurrected in New Hampshire. Have we found a successor to Salinger?" - Lori Mendel, Author of "The Place I Live The People I Know" "Come and Get It is an unforgettable coming of age story for both young adults and adults. It's authentic, intense, and bittersweet. What
