About this listen

In Metairie, Louisiana, a young woman revels in the solitary exercise that is riding in an elevator, as across town, a father attempts to pedal his way back into his childhood via a late-night bike ride in his quiet suburban neighborhood. Meanwhile, a young executive climbs the corporate ladder through the strangest of mind-bending means as just moments earlier, a lonely man awakens in his car to the fact that he may have the latent impulses and instincts of a serial killer. If only they knew just how interconnected their seemingly different timelines will become. The Zen of Elevator Travel is an exploration of timelines, a sweeping collection of ten stories to be listened to as a piece of extended fiction or individually, as a set of collective fateful brushstrokes.

I throughly enjoyed listening to this audible and the surprises that showed up along the way. Very well written with such a creative imagination on imagining more than I would have asked for. The narrator’s accent on locals in the New Orleans area was on point! It brought the book to life in ways a Native could understand. I’m excited to see what the author has next in store!

The characters! The range of characters!

there was nothing about this book I didn't like! being from New Orleans and visualizing the areas described made it so immersive. the way it all connected was a twist I didn't expect. the stories were like a fever dream that I couldn't put down. I look forward to more from Ted Torres

These short stories connected to make one hell of an interesting novel. I loved how each story could stand alone while also intertwining with the others in fun (and not so fun) ways. Also loved the Metairie/Harahan rep too! Definitely helped immerse me in the narrative. Great work to both author and narrator!

what a ride
