A book trailer for “Sculptor Of The North: The Evolution Of A Soul’ by Doug Petersen is now available

Author Reputation Press is glad to announce the release of the book trailer for “Sculptor Of The North: The Evolution Of A Soul’ by Doug Petersen. This narrative was highly praised by Mari Carlson of the US Review of Books, acknowledging that “The chaotic writing—ranging from poetic to anecdotal to urgent and emotional—matches the precarity of Peterson’s circumstances. The chapters are short, and the pace moves quickly from one scene to the next. Incidents of dialogue are few and far between and are in line with the book’s main thrust of Peterson’s individual struggles. Instead of people, Peterson interacts with the woodlands around him, noting the colors, sounds, and sights of his surroundings. Peterson fills out the narrative with colorful descriptions of his cat and neighbors. The resulting tone is of a stoic acceptance of change and gratitude for his companions along the way. An epilogue, photos, and a postscript suggest an ongoing metamorphosis. A sequel is promised.”

Doug Peterson lives in Richfield, Minnesota, a southern suburb of Minneapolis. At an early age, he was already good at reading and writing, thanks to his mother, who encouraged him and his ambitious ways. He attended the University of Minnesota from 1970 to 1973.

“Sculptor of the North: The Evolution of a Soul” by Doug Petersen is a story of hope and determination. He didn’t give up on his life, despite how hard it was and how chaotic it could be. He may have had one of the most difficult lives after his house burned down, and he needs to start over again. After so many years of living homeless in the woods, he was able to achieve his dream, and he became a sculptor.

This masterpiece was among the books displayed by ARP during the recent 2024 Los Angeles Times Festival of Books (LATFOB) at the University of Southern California on April 20–21, 2024.
