Allen Callaci - 17 & Life Book
Allen Callaci's third book arrives to mark his 30th anniversary as the singer/songwriter in the band Refrigerator. In April 1983, Upland High School senior Anna Marie Bachoc was brutally murdered by her boyfriend, sending waves of shock and disbelief through the quiet city that had branded itself “the city of gracious living.” 17 & Life is a meditation on her life, the life that might have been, and the loss that still haunts the community three decades on. A thumbnail short story first appeared at BK Nation and was anthologized in Callaci's award winning "Louder Than Goodbye:" book. This expanded novella features haunting photographs by Shrimper stalwart Buzzsaw & cover art by Dennis Callaci.
