About Guest William T. Hathaway
William T. Hathaway began his writing career as a newspaper reporter in San Francisco, then joined the Special Forces to write a book about war. A WORLD OF HURT won a Rinehart Foundation Award for its portrayal of the psychological roots of war: the emotional blockage and need for patriarchal approval that draw men to the military. SUMMER SNOW tells of an American warrior in Central Asia who falls in love with a Sufi Muslim and learns from her an alternative to the military mentality. RIP AND BURN is a young-adult novel about a boy learning the futility of violence and the need for peaceful communication. RADICAL PEACE: People Refusing War presents the true stories of activists who have moved beyond protest into direct action, becoming criminals for peace by defying the government’s laws and impeding its capacity to kill. WELLSPRINGS: A Fable of Consciousness is set in 2026 as an old woman and a young man battle the corporations that control the remaining water resources after the earth’s ecosystem has broken down under human abuse. LILA, THE REVOLUTIONARY is a fable for adults about an eight-year-old Indian girl who sparks a world revolution for social justice. Hathaway was a Fulbright professor of creative writing and American studies at universities in Germany, where he currently lives. A selection of his writing is available at: http://www.peacewriter.org
