Uly is available in a Large Print paperback edition. The trim size is the same as the standard print edition, 6×9 inches. The type is set in 18 point Pelago Regular, so there are about a hundred extra pages.
If you are interested in the typeface, you can visit Adobe’s Typekit blog for an article describing it.
The Large Print edition should be available everywhere Uly is sold, but it may not be featured as an available format. If it’s not, use the search bar on your favorite bookseller’s website to search for it.
Here it is on the Books-A-Million website.
Review
A Five-star review on Goodreads.
“With all the southern charm of a meandering country lane, Uly Quits His Job is the perfect companion for an afternoon spent on a shady porch with a cold glass of sweet tea. Travis Williams cleverly combines wit and humour with misadventures and shenanigans as Uly collides with destiny and discovers humanity at its finest.” —Lisa LeBlanc

Review
Uly Quits His Job is true to life and delightful!
Travis Williams collected all kinds of keen observations about humans and gave them to the characters in Uly Quits His Job. One after the other comes in, does their little dance that makes them absolutely unique, helps or hinders the main character, Uly, and then gracefully bows out.
This book is also about human connections and how the things we do that seem so random actually add up. It’s almost like the “butterfly breath” theory. Way over in Charleston, a human breaths, and Uly’s life is never the same.
I love the weird things the characters do that seem so normal to them. I love the gentle, what most people call “easy going” narrative that holds so many Easter Eggs you’ve got to read it twice and many more times just to catch on to what Williams is doing with his words.
I love how he weaves the extraordinary, hidden in the ordinary, into a sweet, satisfying journey.

Five-star review on Goodreads
“My reading of Uly Quits His Job took me on a journey through the South, making me feel like I was really there. Each introduction of the characters involved made me feel like I had made a new friend. This is not just about Uly’s personal journey to becoming a better version of himself, but all about the infamous Southern hospitality…the kind of hospitality which makes for a better world.” —Tammy B.

REVIEWS
“Travis’s debut novel hits a certain southern charm that not many writers can emulate. From his intertwining characters to his descriptive prose, Travis is a master of his writing. Uly is a carefully crafted story that always has you fighting for the main character. The [hardcover] book design, format, and quality is an added bonus! A great read overall and one that you will want to read time and time again to pick up on things you may have missed.” —Hugh S.
“Williams is a master at observing the inner life of unlikely elements. He is an alchemist when he brings them together to shine the light on our extraordinary within our ordinary.” —Nicola MacCameron, Author of the Leoshine series.
