Fortnight on Maxwell Street
Fortnight on Maxwell Street is a reluctant hero’s journey of fear and courage set in Chicago in the spring of 1968. 24-year-old medical student Nick Weissman spends two weeks delivering babies in the kitchens and bedrooms of the inner-city’s slum tenements. Over his head medically, and unprotected in one of America’s most dangerous neighborhoods, his character and resourcefulness are tested in the extreme when a national tragedy intervenes.
Fortnight on Maxwell Street is the winner of the Eric Hoffer Award for the Best General Fiction Book of 2018. The Hoffer Awards honor literary excellence from small and independent presses. Kirkus Reviews honored Fortnight on Maxwell Street, selecting it for their list of the Top Five Indie Historical Novels of 2018.
