Synopsis

Did you ever wonder what it's like to live in The Villages? Well, forget about what you might have heard, it's not like anywhere else in the world. There are almost 150,000 seniors behind The Villages' gates and they're having a ball. You don't have to imagine what might happen when an entire generation of athletes, geniuses, rocket scientists, celebrities, lunatics, artists, musicians, hard-working middle-class heroes, and patriots is concentrated in one place. Now you can read all about it.

The Roundabout Way is author Jack O'Brien's unique view of living life in The Villages, Florida, the country' s fastest growing community. It's a fun read, a collection of compelling fictional short stories about the many facets of aging in a 55+ world, and how Seniors cope and even thrive in this unique setting. True-to-life, the stories boldly confront subjects like declining health, dealing with technology, losing a spouse, finding romance, taking risks, loving pets, making friends, causing trouble and settling scores—all with a healthy combination of laugh-out-loud humor, heart-wrenching pathos and charm.

You'll meet a colorful cast of characters, many of whom may very well remind you of folks you already know—or people you'd love to have in your own neighborhood. Just as in real life, you'll find there's nothing stereotypical about these Seniors.

Jack O'Brien and his wife, Pam, live in The Villages, Florida.
