Novel, The Footsteps of My Father, by Peter Farrell Wolfe (2012), http://amzn.com/B009V5C3FK
Sam O’Sullivan’s father is dying. Safely cradled within his hands rests his father’s memoir. As he leafs through its pages, Sam can’t help but compare his bland reality against the passion that defines his war hero father’s life. Waiting to board the flight that will reunite them for the last time, Sam remembers that remarkable summer in 1968 when he was eleven. Not only did he meet Teapan and John Henry, he also learned about the cave-dwelling mystic, Ra Arun, the man who miraculously saved his father’s life and whose lifelong quest for insight would eventually affect and shape Sam too. Everything changes that summer. Sam comes to see his father, James, as a living legend and, while Teapan’s delivery of letters from 1942 help to liberate his father of his longstanding guilt and shame, it is Annie’s forgiveness that finally frees James to share the last and greatest of all his shocking secrets. |
