Grand Prize Award Finalist for the 2015 Eric Hoffer Award for Books, one of the largest international book awards for small, academic, and independent presses.
Recipient of a Book of the Year Award from the Chicago Writers Association.
"Any Road Will Take You There" is honest, unflinching, and tender. In the tradition of the Great American Memoir, a middle-age father takes the reader on a five-thousand-mile road trip -- the one he always wished he'd taken as a young man. Recently divorced and uncertain of the future, he rereads the iconic road story -- Jack Kerouac's "On the Road" -- and along with his two sons and his best friend, heads for the highway to rekindle his spirit.
However, a family secret turns the cross-country journey into an unexpected examination of his role as a father, and compels him to look to the past and the fathers who came before him to find contentment and clarity, and celebrate the struggles and triumphs of being a dad.
"Any Road Will Take You There: A Journey of Fathers and Sons" is a heartwarming and heartbreaking story told with humor and grace, revealing the beautiful but imperfect ties that connect all of us.
