Historia
Meet David Justin, an Italian-Catholic, height-challenged youth, desperately trying to escape the bonds of sexual repression and adolescent innocence that hold him captive…in the 60s. The journey of enlightenment is both laugh-aloud funny and gut-wrenchingly emotional, as David discovers that coming-of-age is more than just a five-minute roll in the hay culminating in a thirty-second celebratory shower.

What made the experience of listening to Escaping Innocence the most enjoyable?
Escaping Innocence brought back vivid memories of my youth...embarrassment, shame, guilt, lust, as well as some of the greatest times of my life. The events depicted in this tale of coming-of-age in the sixties were universal, and I'm sure anyone of that era would easily relate to them. Mr. Kohler's narration sparkled with an energy reminiscent of Jean Sheppard, one of the great storytellers of all time (A Christmas Story). His excellent voice talent added greatly to this already wonderful story. I highly recommend this to all baby boomers!
What was one of the most memorable moments of Escaping Innocence?
I think the section of the book that most touched me was the relationship between the main character, David Justin, and his black college classmates.
Which scene was your favorite?
The scene in Captain Tony's bar.
Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
Laugh, laugh, laugh! Also, highly emotion was a scene involving 'Nam.
Any additional comments?
Looking forward to more from this talented author.
