YA
Using a script format, Rob relates his experiences growing up listening to local and distant radio stations, searching for the disk jockey father who abandoned him before birth. Seeking his father's voice, he ultimately finds his own. Fleischman does wonders with his unique format, creating a musical blend of rhythmic, almost metered prose that begs to be read aloud.
