A Father’s Real Life Struggle Is Written

A true to life story, “David and the Old Man,” written by William Zemba, is a plot about a hardworking father and his eldest son. Their family lived in a farm where the father grew up, and the only way to survive there is by growing plants for food. As a farmer, the father also grew plants at home to feed his wife and four children. He is a good provider and he even stored enough food for his family, neighbors and friends.
 
Past his own thinking, the father’s or the Old Man’s eldest son named David did not grow up as a resilient, hard-headed and independent boy. It was not what he expected. As a child, David had all the normal behavior that a child could possibly have, but for one, he develops a psychological eating disorder called anorexia nervosa. This eating disorder is very rare in the male population.
 
How would the old man, as a “food giant”, grower and producer of food, feel having a son who just would not eat? This is where the family’s battle begins.
 
“David and the Old Man” by William Zemba is one of the titles expected to be displayed at the upcoming 2017 Frankfurt Intl. Book Fair, which will take place on October 11, 2017. Don’t miss the event!
