Pacific Palisades, CA Author Publishes Fiction Novel
October 04, 2025 at 03:00 AM EDT
(PRLeap.com) "Thou Mayest", a new book by FBA, has been released by Dorrance Publishing Co., Inc."Thou Mayest" is a gripping modern realistic fiction novel that explores timeless themes of morality, personal growth, and the tension between individual identity and societal norms. Set against the stark contrast of a new city in the Pacific Northwest, where organic food co-ops sit blocks away from homeless encampments on the beach, the novel follows a young protagonist navigating culture shock, displacement, and self-discovery.
As the story unfolds, the protagonist finds unexpected solace and purpose in the art of baking, forming unlikely friendships and discovering passion in the most unassuming corners of life. Every choice carries weight, every moment builds toward a poignant conclusion, a reminder that every journey, no matter how uncertain, leads somewhere meaningful.
With literary echoes of Les Misérables and East of Eden, and philosophical undercurrents inspired by Ayn Rand, Tolstoy, and Dostoevsky, "Thou Mayest" is a thought-provoking narrative that bridges classic literature with contemporary experience.
About the Author
FBA was raised in suburban America, where life revolved around team sports and neighborhood routines. Writing began unexpectedly, with a college admissions essay that opened doors to multiple universities. Instead of following a conventional academic path, FBA chose to serve in the army. A Libra with a love for beachside walks, a good bottle of rosé, and watching the Vampire Diaries (Team Damon, naturally), FBA brings a fresh, honest voice to modern fiction.
"Thou Mayest" is FBA's literary debut, a bold, emotional journey that invites readers to confront the gray spaces between right and wrong, belonging and exile, comfort and challenge.
"Thou Mayest" is a 484-page paperback with a retail price of $29.00 (eBook $24.00). The ISBN is 979-8-89341-084-6. Published by Dorrance Publishing Co., Inc. of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.
