From the award-winning author of A well-Respected Man, Accidental Lessons, and Any Road Will Take You There comes a truly American story of unwavering heart and soul. Jake Mulholland dreams of becoming the next great rock 'n' roll radio personality. But like his father, his appetite for love conflicts with his thirst for success, leading to an unforgivable mistake. Jake finds fame but also the excess of celebrity, and just as he begins to rediscover his authentic self, he's shaken by the news of a life-altering secret. In an effort for redemption, Jake plans a special New Year's Eve broadcast that will be the biggest challenge of his life. Night Radio is a love letter to music and rock 'n' roll radio of the 1970s, the story of an American boy and an American family, and of dreams just out of reach. EDITORIAL REVIEWS: "After spending more than three decades in radio I can tell you that Night Radio captures the raw and very real essence of what it's like to be on-the-air after dark during the glory days of rock-n-roll radio. Like a great record I keep playing Night Radio over and over in my mind. The story crackles like those wonderful old vinyls." --- Larry Richert, KDKA Radio, Pittsburgh"Lyrical, philosophical, poetic ... David Berner's Night Radio: A Love Story is all of that and more. This touching novel had me both laughing out loud and brushing away tears, thanks to a colorful cast of compelling characters who prove that it's never too late to come of age." --- Kelli Christiansen, Chicago Book Review "David W. Berner writes an emotional and powerful story about the connections we make and the connections we lose. A novel as irresistible as those old records we played over and over." --- Lin Brehmer, WXRT Radio, Chicago "Night Radio is a story of hope, even if it is different from the way we might ever have imagined it. The way the words flow from page to page draws a beautiful image of a complicated life. You want the main character, Jake to find his version of happiness, just as we all seek our own happiness. The beauty of Night Radio is that even in its darkest passages you hope that Jake finds his happy ending." --- Shari Schmidt, Oh My Books Review
