Blog 6: Flush By Carl Hiaasen

October 21, 2010

On the Internet, read a biography about the author of your IRB.  How do you see the traditions, heritage, attitudes, or beliefs (pick one) of the author in your book? 

The author of my IRB, Carl Hiaasen, shows his heritage in his book, Flush. In the story, The Underwood family live in a small town in Florida. He shows his heritage through the location of the story. Hiaasen was born and raised in Florida and also graduated form the University of Florida. Recently after graduating he joined the Miami Herald as a reporter and has 14 publish books three of which were writen with his good friend,William D. Montalbano. He does show his heritage in his story.
