Sean Smith, a long-time Newton resident, has published his first novel, Transformation Summer — a coming-of-age tale told as a memoir: A man recalling the summer he was 16, when his world seemed to be falling apart – and years later, still processing what happened. The book has been selected for a Gold Award by Literary Titan as one of its top picks for June.
The author will hold a book reading and greeting event on Sunday, July 9, 4PM-5PM, in the Nordic Hall of the Scandinavian Living Center (206 Waltham Street, West Newton).
