About this audiobook

The Good Man is a poignant work of contemporary literary fiction that deconstructs the myth of the local hero. Set in the biting cold of Oakhaven, a lakeside town where everyone knows your business and your past, the story follows Arthur Hennings, the sixty-two-year-old owner of the local hardware store. For forty years, Arthur has been the town’s "Good Man"—the one who fixes the broken radiators, sews the loose buttons, and forgives the debts of his neighbors.
