"Fiction is an exercise in the capacity for imaginative love." -- Marilynne Robinson

Praise For Robert's Work

Kirkus Reviews

"Robert Crooke is a skilled prose stylist."

The Berkshire Eagle

"Crooke has a deft hand at lifting history out of textbook constraints and injecting it with human realism and relevance."

Kirkus Reviews

"His writing has a natural sense of timing. The threads of his stories come together with ease and, at times, the deep discomfort of reality."

Vinton Rafe McCabe, author of Death in Venice, California

"What distinguishes Robert Crooke's work from that of other authors is a quality of grace. It is as if his words were lit from within."

The Litchfield County Times

"His characters exist in a world of their own concerns, struggles and successes. He doesn't so much invent them as overhear them. He is part storyteller, part listener."

Letting the House Go

 An evocative new work of literary fiction, Letting the House Go is the story of an outwardly successful man whose private grievances and faulty memory are challenged by an unexpected trip to the past.
