"Words Alone Are Certain Good" is a haunting literary novel that follows Ernest Larsen through the most devastating week of his life in post-Katrina New Orleans. Set against the backdrop of a city still healing from Hurricane Katrina, this powerful story explores the unbreakable bonds of family, the weight of honor, and the search for redemption in the face of overwhelming loss. Ernest struggles to care for his developmentally disabled brother Kirby while watching his wife Janus spiral into addiction after a family tragedy that changed everything. When Ernest discovers an opportunity to escape their toxic home life with his alcoholic mother, he believes he's found the key to saving his fractured family. But as the past collides with the present over the course of seven transformative days, Ernest must confront the darkest parts of himself and decide what kind of man he truly wants to be. Trenton McKay Judson crafts a deeply moving portrait of working-class life in New Orleans, where the music of the city mingles with the poetry of everyday survival. Through Ernest's journey, we witness the raw power of love, the burden of responsibility, and the possibility of grace even in our most broken moments. This debut novel captures the authentic voice of the American South while exploring universal themes of family, loss, and the courage required to change. Rich with the atmosphere of New Orleans-from jazz clubs to hurricane-damaged neighborhoods-"Words Alone Are Certain Good" is both a love letter to a resilient city and an unflinching examination of what it means to be human. A story about finding hope in the darkest places and the transformative power of unconditional love.
