Best Novel This Year… as believable as it is heart-wrenching… exhilarating… the characters so honest, so deliberate, so painfully human that I forget they’re not made of flesh and blood…

Acclaimed Author of Gospel-Themed Fiction

Art Hutchinson

Art’s writing career burst forth at age eight when he won a creative essay contest at his local public library, across the street from the leafy-historic Lexington green and the Minuteman statue. 

He studied geology at a bucolic erudite college in the Berkshires with guys who climbed scary-big mountains. (He tagged along on some of the small ones.) Not long after that, he learned about paying bills. He ran a successful business, then began telling corporate CEOs how to run theirs.

Art authored countless strategic planning treatises, each of which seemed weighty, even brilliant… at the time. Mercifully, that part of his literary oeuvre remains cordoned behind non-disclosure agreements and plausible deniability. Despite maxing out on frequent flier miles for several years, he never mastered jet lag.  Shortly after 9-11, without ever intending to, he became a Christian.

Art and his wife of 36 years have always planted near Boston near where each grew up. Between writing fugues, he walks their cute fluffy dogs with her alongside a flock of grandchildren.
