Penelope: A Novel

Just released! George Anderson wants nothing more than to be alone in his trailer or on his porch, reading the newspaper, minding his own business. When a filthy, bothersome dog presents herself at his feet, George is anything but pleased, and when the disheveled boy from across the street walks over, it only irritates George further. Yet as the dog refuses to leave, George begrudgingly allows Callum onto his porch, where, as days pass, a relationship slowly begins to blossom between the boy and the curmudgeonly older man. When Callum’s mom is whisked away in an ambulance, the small boy’s fate is unknown, forcing George to reckon with the demons of his past and grapple with not only the boy’s circumstances but George’s future as well. Alternating between past and present, Penelope explores how one moment can echo into the future, how one person can change the way we think, and ultimately, how the merging of two very different lives has, if we let it, the ability to heal a broken heart.
