I loved reading this book. It is short but powerful. Sad when we lose someone we love. Even sadder when we try to not remember them just so we don’t get emotional. This book made me cry. Happy tears of course!

Father Time

Father Time

Unravel the Twisted Humor and Heartache in ‘Father Time’

Dive into the darkly comedic world of ‘Father Time’, penned by the talented Torthell Robinson. Here, protagonist Trevor Russell grapples with the ghosts of a tumultuous Black American childhood, only to find that his emerging literary success brings with it a host of new demons. As Trevor’s estranged father resurfaces to seek forgiveness, and as Trevor faces impending fatherhood himself sans matrimonial bliss, his life spirals into chaos. Plagued by writer’s block and overwhelmed by familial tensions, he flees back to his roots in Arkansas, where the past and present brutally collide, offering him a bizarre opportunity to rewrite everything.

Torthell Robinson masterfully intertwines laughter with pain, creating a narrative that pulsates with raw emotions and an unflinchingly humorous glimpse at life’s absurdities. The charade of overcoming past traumas, the daunting task of penning a second novel under pressure, and the irony of Trevor’s own looming fatherhood concoct a recipe for disaster—and entertainment. As Trevor seeks vengeance through the power of his pen, the reader is treated to a story that flips between uproarious and touching with seamless finesse. Moments of genuine reflection on personal growth and the complexity of family relationships are peppered with sharp wit, making ‘Father Time’ a compelling read on self-discovery and the haunting pull of the past.

Expect twists of fate and biting comedy that challenge our protagonist’s sense of identity and purpose. ‘Father Time’ stands out as a novel that not only entertains but also resonates deeply with anyone who has faced the daunting task of confronting personal and familial ghosts. It’s a potent mix of the humorous and the heartbreaking.

Two brothers facing regular life challenges during an irregular time of a Nation’s history, after their parents passed away, they both had no one but each other.
