Recessional Book Reviews
Recessional by James A. Michener & Steve Berry Book Summary
In this remarkable novel, Pulitzer Prize–winning author James A. Michener draws on his unparalleled gift for storytelling, his deep understanding of American society, and his own life experiences to illuminate the challenges of aging and the folly of youth. As the new director of a Florida retirement home known as the Palms, Andy Zorn suffers no shortage of loving support from his “elders,” a group of five passionate, outspoken residents. Still, Andy’s shortcomings tear him apart. But when he meets an extraordinary young woman who has been forced to rebuild her life after suffering crippling injuries, he finds himself falling in love. And with a few gentle jabs from his more mature friends, he discovers a wonderful new purpose in life.
BONUS: This edition includes an excerpt from James A. Michener's Hawaii.
Praise for Recessional
“The best moments in the novel occur when the characters disclose what’s in their hearts and minds with rueful, snappy humor.”—The New York Times Book Review
“Michener hooks you with wonderfully humorous scenes. These are then interwoven between the moments of pain and heartache brought about by life choices we all must make.”—Tulsa World
“Engaging . . . One will be drawn into the novelist’s world. . . . The lush natural setting provides James Michener plenty to show and tell.”—The Washington Times

Not up to par. This is Michener’s last book and just doesn’t live up to his earlier writing. It reads like a personal exploration of death and dying through the eyes of his characters; character development is superficial as he explores the many complications of dying in a nation that reveres life but has no respect for the sanctity of death. He brings race into the picture but the people of color are stereotypical. It is a good book; I did make it to the end, but not a great one.
Recessional. I loved everything about this book. I’d read Michener before so I knew I would enjoy this. It’s long, well-developed with characters and locations that I could clearly see in my mind’s eye. The high & low points were realistic and acceptable. The resolution left me completely satisfied.
