Noble Stories Marc Ridge

Welcome to Noble, Indiana. You can leave this small town, but it never leaves you. This is what Michael J. Bear and his friends learn throughout their adventures.

Similar to Edgar Allan Poe, Marc Ridge explores American Romanticism and its the darker undercurrents. Each story within his episodic novel conveys a powerful sense of human connection: for the characters, this connection is both a curse and salvation. Above all, Professor Ridge's stories make full use of Flannery O'Connor's maxim to "resist paraphrase."

Marc Ridge spent his lifetime developing his Noble stories. Now readers can glimpse the shadows and symposiums of his world.
