The Walk
by Richard Paul Evans
“The Walk” is a story who a man who loses everything yet gains a new appreciation for life and people. The story begins with the main character Alan at a beach in Florida while the remainder of the book presents all of the events
that lead to Alan’s journey.
The author presents Alan’s story in a easy to follow manner and the reader finds themselves feeling joys at Alan’s triumphs along with sadness as the life he’s worked so hard to build with his beloved wife McKale falls apart. I think a lot of reader can see themselves in Alan in that you put off doing this today because you believe you’ll have time to accomplish it tomorrow. This book shows that tomorrow is not promised and that it’s only when we hit rock bottom that we can begin to rebuild and heal.
After Alan’s life is complete torn asunder, he decides to achieve a lifelong dream of walking across the country and decides to walk from Washington to Florida. Although he initially keeps to himself during his walking trip, over time he meets and befriends numerous people who help him with the grieving process.
As a personal who has been keeping a diary/journal since I was a young girl, I appreciated the author starting each chapter with a hand written journal except. In addition, I liked that The author allows Alan to full experience his emotions and even express anger at God for taking his wife away. The writing in the book flows well and it is an easy read. Alan’s story is so engaging that I plan to read the entire series because I want to see what other people he interacts with on his walk to Florida.
