Synopsis

In partnership with Texas Monthly, Skip Hollandsworth's "Still Life" is now available as an audio download, where the length and timeliness of a podcast meets the high-quality production of a full-length audio program.

Thirty-five years ago, Dallas--and the country--was gripped by the tragic story of John McClamrock, a high school football player paralyzed during a violent tackle. But after the newspapers moved on, another story was quietly unfolding, one of courage, perseverance, and a mother's fierce love.

Book 15/100 for the 2023 Goodreads Reading Challenge. Unnerving novel about a woman in a coma who can hear what everyone around her is saying.
