Broken Laces by Rodney Walther is writing from the heart, written with a sensitivity that invites reflection. An honest look at loss and how it affects loved ones, not sugar-coated nor rosy glasses, but a straight forward look at how a woman’s death affects her husband and son.
Here’s an excerpt:
“My wife was a smart woman — I absolutely adored her — but she didn’t understand the first thing about sports. Baseball wasn’t about fun. She couldn’t appreciate that hard work and overcoming disappointment built character, that coddling a boy didn’t grown him into a man.”
Broken Laces is about how a father and son build a relationship and learn to show love and support for one another. I recommend this book as a thoughtful reflection about life and what’s important.
