Robert Haller - Another Life

Haller grew up in De Kalb Junction and resides in Canton. The book details the lives of several characters whose paths collide in a small New York town.

“Over the course of one summer, these characters’ paths will collide in surprising, often hilarious ways. Encompassing questions of identity, religion, race, and family, ‘Another Life’ is an absorbing and thought-provoking debut about the line we all walk between desire and responsibility,” according to the publisher.

Haller’s work has appeared in “LitHub,” “Joyland” and “Epiphany.” He is currently working on his second novel.
