New York, NY, USA - July 3, 2023 - As a filmmaker, Anja Høvik Strømsted knows the importance of storytelling. Using her extensive experience in the film industry, she focused on writing and delivered a profound story when she released her debut novel, “The Dead-Honest Truth According to Tazz,” on May 30, 2023. The book, published by S & H Press, is available in eBook and paperback on Amazon setting the stage in Contemporary Women’s Fiction. Dr. Melissa Caudle, bestselling author and media influencer, says, “This book is not to be missed. Anyone who has been on a journey knows there are so many right and left turns to take. I love this book; it delivers an unorthodox path to achieving goals facing many obstacles.”
ABOUT THE BOOK
This young female narrator, by the name of Tazz Iverson, will convince you that there are unorthodox paths to triumph, even thru gloomy, violent, and wildly unreasonable circumstances, especially those your parents, teachers, or anyone who is supposed to care won’t vouch for. Dead-honest as she is, she will likely make you laugh out loud and challenge you at your core. Having left her home country, friends and family, and her acceptance to a creative writing course, she searches for fulfillment and revolution against practically everyone in a holiday resort in Scotland. Her growing contempt, unrecognized brilliance, and unfulfilled gifts and desires send her from one shithole to the next. There is a straightforwardness to the narration that makes us really understand her when no one else does, which makes this character study so engaging. This is not an easy character, but her honesty is handed right to the reader with the stomach to discuss it.
EARLY REVIEW
“Not a conventional tale, but its unapologetic honesty and raw portrayal of the protagonist's journey make it a compelling read. Brace yourself for a thought-provoking exploration of resilience, as Tazz challenges societal expectations and invites readers to question their own beliefs.”
