Till Tomorrow Never Comes by A W Anthony presents a thought-provoking and introspective narrative centered around Kurt Kellerman, a sixty-five-year-old man confronted with a life-altering cancer diagnosis. Despite what appears to be a fulfilling life, complete with loving children and a devoted wife, Kurt’s initial acceptance of his fate hides something much deeper. As the story unfolds, readers are transported back to the 1970s, where the author skillfully peels back layers of Kurt’s past to reveal the truths he has long concealed.

Anthony dives into complex themes—belief systems, the impact of religion, interdenominational relationships, love, and the weight of life-altering decisions. The narrative underscores how parental influence can shape a child’s entire future, a message that resonates throughout Kurt’s journey. The exploration of these ideas feels authentic and profound, giving readers plenty to ponder. Set against a backdrop of the past, the book brims with nostalgia. Details like pay phones and handwritten letters evoke a simpler era, adding a sense of longing and charm that enriches the narrative. These elements create a vivid atmosphere, inviting readers to reflect on how times have changed while grounding Kurt’s story in a tangible reality. While the book tackles compelling subjects, there were moments where I struggled to connect with Kurt as a character. His decisions during his college years occasionally felt perplexing, making it difficult to fully understand or empathize with his journey. Yet, the novel’s imperfections don’t overshadow its strengths. The richness of the themes and the depth of character analysis offer readers an opportunity for meaningful reflection.

Till Tomorrow Never Comes may not resonate with everyone, it holds undeniable value for those interested in drama-infused narratives or fiction that delves into religious and existential themes. Anthony’s exploration of human complexity and the impact of our choices makes this a thoughtful and engaging read for those drawn to stories that grapple with life’s most profound questions.
