Whitefish author pens novel based on her experience growing up in Jewish community

Local Whitefish author Linda Hunt recently released her debut historical fiction novel which is based on her life growing up in an almost solely Jewish community. 

The coming-of-age tale is set in University City, Missouri, in the '50s and '60s, and explores the cultural changes that occurred during the time. 

Hunt said the book’s name, “Particular Place and People,” is “really the definition of culture.”
