How does a white male Christian escape the confines of being born to privilege?This book is an impressionist memoir. Its many short and very short stories stand alone like many-colored daubs of pigment on an impressionist’s canvas. But if you step back and view them as a whole, they become a portrait of a guy who has lived along the privilege spectrum during a shining stretch of America’s sprawling saga, from World War II until the huge transfer of wealth to the top 1% from the rest of us that began during the Reagan Administration.A sampling:• Making mischief at Harvard• World War II touches Brooklyn• Serving in the Army of Occupation in Germany during the Cold War• The skinny on the innards of a major Wall Street law firm• A prosecutor blows the whistle on the sham prosecution of police who perpetrated the 1971 Attica prison massacre; he pays the price and reapsunexpected rewards• The single-parent social scene in Fairfield County, CT, during the flowering of women’s lib in the 1970s• Co-raising a girl and boy as the parent without custody• Risking prison to protect Salvadorans and Guatemalans from being summarily sent to the death squads they had fled• Standing with four valiant and determined women in their quest for peace and justice
