Michael is a wonderful gentleman and author with a strong Southern writing voice. He has just released an audio version of one of his more personal books and I rather wish he had narrated it himself, but I'm sure the narrator chosen will do the job just fine.
Below you will find links giving you a chance to read the first chapter of the book, and to also hear a sample of the audio book. Additionally, there are article links below on how the writing of this novel came about and how it relates directly to Michael's boyhood.
If you haven't read any of Michael's books, you have been missing out. Here's your chance to HEAR one! Of course, you can also always buy the book itself. :)

Slow Way Home is a tender yet completely unsentimental tale of survival and redemption. Readers will be gripped by its pitch-perfect evocation of the South in the 1970s, when the gains of the civil rights movement were still tested at every turn.
