Allbaugh writes with the sharp vision of a prophet who has seen the edge of the world and come back with a sorrowful yet honest report. If you lend your attention to this book, it will repay you a thousandfold." --John Matthew Fox, author of I Will Shout Your Name "Thomas Allbaugh's richly drawn stories take the reader to places of longing, regret, loneliness, awkwardness, friendship, faith, and love. This is powerful storytelling about people who seem so real that you'll feel you already know them. Told with subtle humor and a vivid sense of place, these stories will stay with you long after you finish them." --Joseph Bentz, author of A Son Comes Home
