State of Hollow follows Mike Betancourt, an environmental lawyer and Senate candidate in Vermont who has spent his life constructing a polished facade to hide his crippling anxiety and fear of vulnerability. During the grueling campaign, a chance encounter at a bar introduces him to Beth Harper, a free-spirited artist who sees through his political persona, finding the man beneath it all.
As their relationship deepens, it threatens the carefully controlled narrative his ruthless campaign manager, Wayne Sommers, has built. Torn between the safety of his "performative" life and the chaotic authenticity Beth represents, Mike must decide if winning the election is worth losing his soul. This novel explores the tension between ambition and intimacy, asking whether it is possible to lead others without first accepting oneself.
