Non-Fiction Memoir
He was destined from birth for literary greatness.
If only his father hadn’t stolen all the words. As the son of the Pulitzer Prize–winning poet laureate
Richard Eberhart, Dikkon Eberhart grew up surrounded by
literary giants. Frequent dinner guests included, among
others, Robert Frost, Dylan Thomas, Allen Ginsberg, W. H.
Auden, T. S. Eliot, and Sylvia Plath. To the world, they were literary icons. To Dikkon, they were
friends who read him bedtime stories, gave him advice, and,
on one particularly memorable occasion, helped him with his
English homework. Anxious to escape his famous father’s shadow, Dikkon
struggled for decades to forge an identity of his own, first
in writing and then on the stage, before inadvertently
stumbling upon the answer he’d been looking for all along—in
the most unlikely of places. Filled with unforgettable stories featuring some of the most
colorful characters of the Beat Generation, The Time Mom Met
Hitler, Frost Came to Dinner, and I Heard the Greatest Story
Ever Told is a winsome coming-of-age story about one man’s
search for identity and what happens when he finally finds it.
