Christian Martin Releases Gritty Debut Novel Depression

Christian Martin | Author

New author Christian Martin steps boldly onto the literary scene with the release of his powerful debut novel, Depression — a vivid and emotionally gripping story of family, hardship, and hope set during one of America’s most challenging eras.

Depression follows siblings Wade and Ruby, born into poverty, as they chase a new life in New York City. Along the way, their journey intertwines with the troubled past of their parents, revealing a generational fight to survive and rise above. With cinematic storytelling and raw emotion, Martin sheds light on the harsh realities of the Great Depression through the eyes of a Black family striving for something more.

“Writing this book was about telling the truth of our history — the struggles, the strength, and the silent dreams,” said Martin, a young African American voice passionate about resilience and storytelling.
