American Sycamore is a quirky coming of age tale set in a wild landscape of forests and river. Set in a small town peopled by the eccentric, weird and downright crazies, it's moving and funny by turns, and twisting and turning like a whodunnit.

It is lovely to be able to heartily recommend a début novel published by a smaller independent publisher – American Sycamore is exactly that and it deserves a wide readership.

San Francisco Book Review
"American Sycamore is a fascinating exploration of the intertwining of normalcy and insanity that flows through the lives of the characters, like the Susquehanna River that flows through the book." -- SAN FRANCISCO BOOK REVIEW
Dana Micheli, New York Editor, Writers in the Sky
"Fielding captures America's unique physical landscape--and dysfunction--in a truly palpable way. Not since reading Joyce Carol Oates could I so easily step into a book." --- DANA MICHELI, New York Editor, Writers in the Sky
ISABEL HUGGAN
'Imagine white-water rafting with Richard Brautigan....the prose foams up like poetry. Wise, poignant, funny...and utterly original' --- ISABEL HUGGAN, author of THE ELIZABETH STORIES, YOU NEVER KNOW, and BELONGING: HOME AWAY FROM HOME (winner of the Charles Taylor Prize for Literary Non-Fiction)
