Book description
Jack Gantos's Dead End in Norvelt works perfectly as an audiobook. You hear the story unfold with a quiet, steady rhythm, like a kid whispering secrets. The narrator captures Jack's voice exactly-the nervous kid with the nose that bleeds at every shock. His parents are fighting, his plans for summer vanish, and suddenly he's typing obituaries for a cranky neighbor. What starts simple becomes wilder than a fever dream.
Each obituary leads to something else: molten wax, a dancing plague, Hells Angels on a trike, Girl Scout cookies. Eleanor Roosevelt pops up, not as a ghost, but as a real, living memory. You hear the town's history breathing through the words. The narrator never rushes. He lets the weirdness settle. You feel the sticky heat of Norvelt, the weight of old promises, the quiet terror when something seems... off.
This isn't just a story about a kid. It's about how history lives in the smallest things-the way a town is built, the lies people tell themselves. The audiobook makes you lean in. You hear Jack's voice crack when he's scared, the dry humor in the old neighbor's words. The pacing is perfect. It doesn't need to shout. It just tells. And you follow.
Gantos writes with a light touch, but the story has depth. The audiobook version doesn't just deliver words-it delivers a feeling. You're right there, typing by the window, waiting for the next shock to come. It's a quiet, sharp, utterly absorbing listen. You'll want to hear it again, just to catch all the little details you missed the first time. A perfect summer listen.
