Palmetto Publishing Announces The Release of THE SOUND OF THE WHIPPOORWILL
The Sound Of The Whippoorwill
Charleston, SC, May 28, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — In his memoir The Sound of the Whippoorwill, author Edward Llewellyn shares an incredible story of endurance and the indomitability of the human spirit.
Edward was born in 1948, 11 months after his brother. From a young age, he knew something wasn’t right with his mother. His suspicions were confirmed on his fourth birthday, when she flew into a rage and threw the cake his grandmother had made for him out the window, then whipped him with a belt for being upset.
Born on a cotton farm, life wasn’t easy for Edward, his older brother, and his younger sister. Still, they had support in some ways—like Polly and Mack, or Aunt Lou—but the children had to find a way to fend for themselves.
This intricate account of a family’s dysfunctional dynamics under severe stress explores how they strove to balance the rigors of manual labor on the cotton farm, the devastating impact of mental illness, the darkness of child abuse, and the overarching societal issues of the time.
The Sound of the Whippoorwill is available for purchase online at Amazon.com and Barnes and Noble.com. For more information about the author, please visit any of his social media platforms
