Homefront is the first book to tear off the yellow ribbon and expose the raw and complex experience of waiting for a lover to survive a war.
June 3, 2009 – NASHVILLE, TN – Homefront, featured on WNPR’s “Faith Middleton Show,” is Kristen Tsetsi’s critically-acclaimed semi-autobiographical debut novel set in the military town of Clarksville, TN.
“Haunting and lyrical,” writes Emmy award-winning former news correspondent James Moore, author of Bush’s Brain. “I had never had a better understanding of the agony of military separation until I read Kristen Tsetsi’s Homefront.”
Beginning at 2:00pm, Hermitage resident Kristen Tsetsi will autograph books and talk with attendees at the author gathering about the story that revolves around a young woman whose life changes in an instant when her 101st Airborne boyfriend deploys to Iraq.

“It seems like there have been a real lack of narratives out there about the experiences of those who love those in the military, especially this time around. This beautiful and stark novel by Kristen J. Tsetsi makes real the agonizing waiting that so many Americans must do while their loved ones are at modern war.” –Feministing.com

(Sorry about the 3rd person stuff. That’s just the way these things read.)
LOL … it took me a long time to get used to writing in the third person for blurbs and bios. Now of course we do it all the time on Facebook.
