Stanley and the "usual suspects" return to immerse the reader into their lives -- their loves, losses, spiritual journeys, and enduring friendships. Sprinkled into the mix are some new and enduring faces and souls, as well as some high profile contemporary figures. Thoroughly engaging, this second novel of Hall's brings to the reader laughs and tears and the resulting message that we are all connected to one another and, of course the Eternal Daddy. A delightful "read" from beginning to end!
