Reflections on a Life in Exile

By J.F. Riordan

Recipient of the 2020 Shelf Unbound Notable Indie Award

A collection of essays by novelist J.F. Riordan, Reflections on a Life in Exile is easy to pick up and hard to put down. By turns deeply spiritual and gently comic, these brief meditations range from the inconveniences of modern life to the shifting nature of grief. Whether it's an unexpected revelation from a trip to the hardware store, a casual encounter with a tow-truck driver, the changing seasons, or a conversation with a store clerk grieving for a dog, J. F. Riordan captures and magnifies the passing beauty of the ordinary and the extraordinary that lingers near the surface of daily life.
