GRAND VIEW (David Grossman Series)
Steven Jay Griffel
(26 Reviews)
Genre: World Literature | Coming of Age
FREE for a limited time
GRAND VIEW by Best-Selling Author Steven Jay Griffel is the third novel in his David Grossman Series, although first chronologically. Fans of his debut novel, FORTY YEARS LATER and his sequel, THE DEADLINE, will once again have the opportunity to follow Griffel’s storied hero, David Grossman, during a critical time in his early life in this authentic and heartwarming coming-of-age story set in New York’s Jewish Alps during one summer in the 1960s.
GRAND VIEW is a novel for anyone who has ever felt like an outsider. It’s the story of a teenager yearning to belong but forced to spend most of his time alone. It’s a story of romance and revenge; a story of friendships, feuds, and fathers that plays out against a summer bungalow colony in the Catskill Mountains, a world of time-honored traditions that begins to fall apart right in front of David’s eyes.
At the heart of the story is forlorn David, the linchpin between Michael’s dying friendship and Richie’s growing fury. There is David’s pursuit of Andrea, the Ice Princess; and all the girls who pursue him in spite of—perhaps because of—his touching insecurities. There are mothers who pride and fathers who guide—even, in one case, from beyond the grave.
Against the intense feelings and ambitions of the families summering at Grand View is the colony itself: battling daunting odds to win a softball championship while fighting for its very life as new ownership threatens to destroy it. A love-crazy camp director; an evil handyman; a Nazi bastard; a fire-balling, Jesus-jawing evangelist are all part of the cast that helps to color this story both comic and tragic.
GRAND VIEW is a story of friendships, fathers, and lost illusions. It’s a book of lessons learned and of times gone by. It’s a glimpse into the “simpler days” of the American past and into the character of David Grossman, the boy destined to become one of the great novelists of his time.

- Includes a bibliography for further reading.

“General Nelson A. Miles who visited the scene of carnage, following a three day blizzard, estimated that around 300 snow shrouded forms were strewn over the countryside. He also discovered to his horror that helpless children and women with babes in their arms had been chased as far as two miles from the original scene of encounter and cut down without mercy by the troopers. … Judging by the slaughter on the battlefield it was suggested that the soldiers simply went berserk. For who could explain such a merciless disregard for life?” – Hugh McGinnis, 7th Cavalry
Among all the events in the strained relations between the U.S. government and Native Americans during the 19th century, the most notorious and defining one was what is today called the Wounded Knee Massacre. Technically, it was the last armed engagement between Sioux warriors and the U.S. military, and it marked the end of effective resistance by any Sioux bands, but what actually occurred is far more controversial.
