Like me, you probably googled the author Derek Hartfield searching for his works.
This is mentioned on the Wikipedia page of Hear the Wind Sing about him, “A writer who wrote a lot of pulp fictions about aliens and monsters. “I” learnt a lot about writing from him. At the time this novel was published, many channels for information like the internet were non-existent. Hence many readers assumed Derek Hartfield was a real-life author, so much so that many librarians were puzzled in receiving requests of books written by Derek Hartfield.”
Meanwhile, “I” reading Critique of Pure Reason while frolicking with the twins will be forever etched in my mind.
Here are the book titles mentioned in Hear the Wind Sing and Pinball.
