George Hagen was born in Zimbabwe in 1958 and has been wandering the world ever since. From Zimbabwe, his family moved to Rhodesia, from there to the suburbs of London, then crossed the ocean and settled in New Jersey. And only, having acquired his own family, Hagen switched to a sedentary lifestyle.
George Hagen studied film at New York University of the Arts, sold newspapers in an underground passageway, served as a gatekeeper in a movie theater, carpentered, worked on a farm, secretarized, wrote scripts and distributed leaflets on the streets. But I always wanted to be a writer.
Lamentations is his first novel, based on the story of the family of George Hagen, which he weaved into extraordinary adventures in the spirit of the adventures of Tom Sawyer and Huckelbury Finn.
