“I truly envy the way Robert Fromberg writes. His sentences are masterfully balanced. His narratives are constantly surprising. His latest book is terse, funny, poignant. It satirizes our profound self-involvement, celebrates
random encounters, and studies the very idea of ideas. Suspending his unnoticed, unnamed protagonist in the air between absurdities and authorities, Fromberg reveals how little we hear ourselves, notice one another, or fathom the forces that give our lives meaning. A powerful, thoughtful work of art that really stays with you.” —Camden Joy, author of Boy Island

“Reading Gee, That Was Fun was disorienting in the best way, like reading Renata Adler as scatterplot historical
reportage. Fromberg refracts the titular seven days into vignettes that set the absurd and the banal, the outrageous and the humorous, the fictional and the archival, on the same stage as the political theater of the Reagan era. What results is a riotous trip through shopping mall food courts and Senate chambers full of anarchic wit and an astute rejection of easy metanarrative in favor of a much wilder, and perhaps truer, mayhem.” —Gabriela Garcia, author of Of Women and Salt

“Fragmented yet unified, direct yet elusive, How to Walk with Steve is a vivid memoir about family and geography, obligation and freedom. Fromberg gas a remarkable ability to inject meaning into silence, into the cracks between sections, into all the things that remain unsaid.” “Fromberg has a remarkable ability to inject meaning into silence, into the cracks between sections, into all the things that remain unsaid.” —Brett Biebel, author of 48 Blitz

“Fromberg possesses rare chronic patience—which, in turn, enables him to be an ultimate observer. In this collection of dissecting essays, we’re reminded of how masterfully he can transpose his perceptions into essential commentary, at once able to welcome and scrutinize minutiae any lesser writer would overlook entirely.” —Gabriel Hart, author of On High at Red Tide

A novella about a widowed man and his new wife whose lives and perceptions are shaped by his autistic son.
