Factory worker Warrell Swanson has always found meaning in work, dogs, hunting and waitresses. After suffering an injury, he escapes the summer heat at the local tavern with his best friend, and the library, where he falls in love with Defiance, Ohio's beautiful new librarian. But old lust challenges new love and Warrell grapples with a promotion, an indifferent management and the looming threat of a rising river as he considers escaping Defiance for good. Hamilton peers into murky corners with a vivid focus and penetrating wit, retrieving a passionate narrative as authentic as anything out there. -Ben Hamper, author of Rivethead: Tales from the Assembly Line As real as they come- an insider's view of factory life that is all too rare in our literature. [Hell] finds the delicate balance between our working lives and our lives off the job, and what happens when love arrives to tip the scales. -Jim Daniels, author of Detroit Tales and In Line for the Exterminator Full of working man's wisdom, Hell Called Ohio is an ode to the blue collar life. As funny as it is sad, as profound as it is plainspoken, this novel comes at you like an old Bruce Springsteen album and you'll love it just as much. -Peter Geye, author of The Lighthouse Road and Safe From the Sea
