No Relation

by Terry Fallis

Description

What's in a name? Well, if you are a middle-aged copywriter and you share your name with a famous figure, plenty. This is Earnest's Hemmingway's (spelled differently) lifelong plight, and now he faces more pressure as he is expected to take over the family business. He wants no part of it. With no job, no girlfriend, persistent family demands and a very public meltdown gone viral, Earnest decides he has to take back his name. Wry, clever, and utterly engaging!
