The Great Anti-American Novel - Softcover

The Great Anti-American Novel is a memoir written by a confessed mass-murderer in an offshore federal detention facility. The narrator's penetratingly satirical story centers on his small family coming together and being ripped apart by a global economic and cultural collapse that triggers a second American civil war, setting up the events that ultimately result in Dante Thompson and his adopted sister Sylvia orchestrating and carrying out an explosive, blood-gushingly violent retribution for the tragic and untimely deaths of their heroic father and former nation.

Daniel Donatelli was born in Cleveland, Ohio, in 1981. He was an all-state baseball player in 2000, and he wrote the first draft of his first novel on winter break during his freshman year at Ohio University, where he made the baseball team and quit on the same day, having decided to defenestrate himself through the window of youthful athleticism and into the long fatal plummet of deep literature. He graduated from OU in 2004, moved to Los Angeles, made a bunch of money doing corporate QA garbage, and in 2010 he moved back to Ohio and co-founded H.H.B. Publishing, LLC, and released his first two novels. Mr. Donatelli is an unabashed bibliophile, and he currently lives in his thoughts.
