The Sideways Life of Denny Voss by Holly Kennedy
Over 1,950 5-Star Reviews!
In this poignant and funny novel, a man defined by his limitations finds himself at the center of a murder trial—and discovers unexpected truths about his past, his family, and himself.
Denny Voss lives a quiet life in rural Minnesota with his elderly mother and his blind, deaf Saint Bernard, George. He cleans up roadkill for work, and despite a developmental delay caused at birth, Denny believes he has “a good life.”
So how did he end up crashing a sled full of guns into a tree—and getting charged with the murder of a mayoral candidate?
While awaiting trial, Denny recounts the events of the past year to his court-appointed therapist, from accidentally kidnapping a neighbor’s goose to unwittingly aiding a bank robbery. Each attempt to do good seems to spiral into absurd misadventure.
But as the truth behind the murder unfolds, so do long-buried secrets about Denny’s family. And for the first time, Denny must decide what kind of future he truly wants—and how to fight for it.
