I NEVER KNEW HOW OLD I WAS

By: David Joseph

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

In David Joseph’s third collection of fiction, I Never Knew How Old I Was, the stories explore the complexity of relationships across age - physical, emotional, spiritual, and experiential. Young and Old. Age that can be life affirming or world-weary. Foolish or wise. Confident or insecure. All written from the first-person perspective, the stories here are deeply personal and revealing. Through the emotional and physical intimacy of the characters’ interactions, his writing unearths the invisible wounds we cannot see.

Consistent with his first two collections of fiction, The Old Men Who Row Boats and Other Stories and I Didn’t Know What to Say, So I Just Said Thanks, David Joseph uses his ability to explore challenging themes through the most natural human interactions. His writing style is simple and clear in an attempt to leave just the right amount unsaid.

I Never Knew How Old I Was is an ambitious collection that resonates with quiet power.
