About this listen

Ron Rozelle, author of Into That Good Night and The Windows of Heaven, focuses again on his unique brand of characters and situations in a new novel set in modern-day Ohio.

Sam, a reclusive underachiever with a long track record of failed marriages and aspirations, must face, in one short spurt of time, the imminent prospects of middle age, professional outplacement, and unwanted responsibilities toward both his father and his son, two men from whom he has made a long and careful effort to distance himself.

A Place Apart is at once witty and wry and beautiful, filled with vivid description and sharp dialogue. It hits solidly on dilemmas faced daily by many people in many places by telling a compelling story of one man in one place. It is a finely honed novel that will continue to sing a haunting, recognizable song long after the listener has finished the last minute.

This thought-provoking book takes the reader through a turbulent week in the life of an Ohio family as if a short story was fleshed out to encompass details that being the characters fully to life. The pain, depth and connections between characters are delivered seamlessly by the reader, and the audio length is digestible for busy listeners. Nice book!
