Can Lennys mental capacity keep him physically in control, while he desperately tries to flee his past? About the Author The author writes about locales, and things that he has seen and done. If the author writes of a creek, or stream, with good drinking water, then he has drank that water. He was born and raised in the Kentucky Hill Country, and has fished the mouth of Robinson Creek, swam in Meadow Creek, and dived from the steel bridge into the waters of Green River. He has set trot lines, camped on gravel bars, and roamed the back country hunting deer, rabbits and squirrels. The communities and places in, 'If The River Could Talk' are real. The story and characters are not. This novel is the author's third after "Dont Look Back' and A Foot Above Hell.' Bob Close and his wife live in Texas.
