Three teenagers, Blake, his best friend Marsh, and his girlfriend, Krista, narrate their experiences as sixteen year olds growing up in the Bible belt of middle America, facing the common \u201cslings and arrows\u201d of adolescence: drugs, sex, peer pressure, violence and rebellion. But something else comes into play in their lives. Something that is far from normal and certainly not commonplace. They have no idea what it is or even IF it is. Their lives become a whirlwind of aggressive\u00a0and unpredictable behaviours that make them question their core beliefs and the essence of their own existence.<\/span><\/p>\n

“This is a gripping, readable story of interesting characters easily visualized, in an expanding human drama, with a twist. It is a fine tale, full of surprises.”<\/em>
\u2014 Conrad Black, Former Newspaper Publisher (The Daily Telegraph, Chicago Sun Times etc.)<\/p>\n

\u201cYou have to make only one decision about\u00a0William G. Anderson\u2019s book Shadowy Reflections: decide to\u00a0pick it up. Once you do, you will\u00a0never put it down until you are finished.\u201d<\/em>
\u2014 George Jonas, Author of Vengeance (basis of Steven Spielberg\u2019s film Munich)<\/p>\n

\u201cA book as large, powerful, and mysterious as the mighty Mississippi River which wends its way through\u00a0the background of this passionate and artfully constructed\u00a0coming-of-age story. \u201cEnergy,\u201d said William\u00a0Blake, “is eternal delight,\u201d and William G. Anderson has peopled Shadowy Reflections\u00a0with characters\u00a0full of the raw over-abundance of burgeoning self-awareness and the dark turbulence of sexual longing.\u00a0A capacious, humane, and insightful meditation on the exigent metabolism of adolescence.”<\/em>
\u2014 Roger Kimball, Editor and Publisher, The New Criterion<\/p>\n

\u201cShadowy Reflections embodies the enlightenment and catastrophe that occur in adolescence. William\u00a0G. Anderson reveals in exhilarating detail a bold, raw, coming of age drama intertwined by three\u00a0characters\u2019 perspectives. My heart has never raced so much by turning pages. Truly a pleasure to read.\u201d<\/em>
\u2014 Uno Adams, Producer of the Award-winning Short Film, Stuck<\/p>\n

“Relationships define our existence as human beings. It is the relationships with those who survive us\u00a0that define who we are remembered as when we are gone and it is relationships that define Shadowy\u00a0Reflections. William G. Anderson’s novel not only allows you to peer into the lives of its well-defined\u00a0characters but also different types of relationships. The writer experiments with relationships between\u00a0best friends, lovers and families, but perhaps the most compelling is a relationship that he creates\u00a0between characters and readers.”<\/em>
\u2014 J. Cole Lansden, Independent Filmmaker<\/p>\n
