In Hide Your Life Away, thirty-two-year-old Jason Mahoney is a commitment-phobic grocery store clerk who finds himself at an inevitable crossroads. He is confused about his path in life, and is hiding from a potential romantic relationship. He can’t understand what cashier Debra Springer could possibly see in him. Hide Your Life Away is a satirical, fast food, weekend romp that might just end up with a trip down the aisle.
Little’s book is a 2009 Eric Hoffer Book Award Finalist for the prestigious Montaigne Medal for “books that either illuminate, progress, or redirect thought”.
We might also get a preview of some of the poems in Little’s upcoming book of poetry.
