The Enduring Echo of Words Unsaid

The Enduring Echo of Words Unsaid is a beautiful story about the power of words and their lasting repercussions on our lives, and how their omission—especially during transformative moments—can damage our psyches. Alex Bryant, a successful homebuilder in Boulder, Colorado, is blindsided when he is told words he never wanted to hear, which, in turn, forces him to speak words he never wanted to say. The words said to Alex on a cold, cold night in early January cause him to embark on a journey where he will heal the leftover pain from his relationship with his emotionally distant, deceased father, and correct his shortcomings with his own children. Along the way, Alex and his stepson, Matt, navigate an extraordinary circumstance that teaches them that fathers and sons are not limited to blood relations. In the end, the novel illustrates the potential for the right words to touch hearts, heal wounds, and close distances. In The Enduring Echo of Words Unsaid, American Fiction Award winner Michael Bowe has penned a compelling follow-up to his highly acclaimed The Weight of a Moment.
