        Hi Jane, it doesn’t look like it’s available at BN.com just yet. This Amazon link should take you to it if you’d like to get it from Amazon. Sorry for the hassle!

        Thanks, Scott! I’m up north right now, so I will get it through that link next week when I’m home again. I don’t want it delivered when I’m not there, and I’m afraid it wouldn’t get to the Upper Peninsula.

        You’re right about Barnes and Noble. I checked the store in Sault Ste. Marie and they weren’t offering it yet. I’ll be back home next week and will get it from Amazon. Thank you for the link. 😊

        Scott William Foley’s latest novel, “The Typewriter,” tells us the story of Marshall Asbury, (Mars), a man grieving for his deceased wife and searching for he knows not what. He is urged to go through her possessions in a way of finally “letting go.” As he does this, he comes across his wife’s typewriter. He decides to keep the typewriter. The story unfolds as the typewriter becomes both a real vehicle for communication and a metaphor for old hurts. As Mars becomes the typewriter’s new owner, things become complicated. In this story, Foley’s characters are achingly real, with both pleasant and unpleasant qualities, just like most of us. Mars himself tries to do the right thing with what the typewriter is producing, and in that way, perhaps, find his way to a meaningful life once again.

        Foley’s prose in the story is clean and spare. At the same time, every sentence has layers of meaning that keep the reader’s attention and push the reader forward to find the solution to the mysteries involved. There are times when the fine prose rises to the level of poetry. This is a book worth reading (and perhaps more than once to get all the subtleties). You will not only enjoy the trip through the story, but you will be left with ideas you may never have considered and possibilities you may never have believed.
