Millard Kaufman began writing this sharp debut novel at age 86, and he packs a lifetime of experience and wisdom into this story. The story is a modern-day globe-trotting adventure, as it takes main character Judd from Yale to a world-saving commune, to war-torn Iraq—all told in hindsight from a filthy prison cell, where Judd awaits execution. Kaufman’s delight in thrusting Judd from one antic scenario to another is contagious. The audio production is excellent, and Bronson Pinchot carries the story’s many twists and turns with aplomb; his voice is deep, and listening is a pleasure. The story’s globe-trotting transitions well to listening, and listeners will appreciate the narration’s clear use of just-different-enough voices for different characters.
