'This poignant reconciliatory story will pull at readers’ heartstrings and have them reevaluating their personal connections. A moving tale about fathers and sons.' -Kirkus ReviewsThree generations of men gather at their family homestead in New Jersey as Franklin Bowman faces impending death. With a plan in mind, Franklin summons his son George, who faces the uncertainties of retirement, and his grandson Jack, who faces the prospect of discovering himself after being fired from his job.Each man keeps secrets he would like to share with the others, but the silence of men might keep those secrets hidden forever. With a touch of magical realism, secondary characters link to historical figures and act as mystical guides.As each man travels an uncharted stage of life, the story reveals the inner world of male vulnerability and strength. While the generations work to restore the homestead for a future sale, they also seek to restore themselves.The story reveals how men live with distances among them, how generations inspire, and how the human spirit endures.
