À propos de cet audio
Sam Pickett never expected to settle in this dried-up shell of a town on the western edge of the world. He’s come here to hide from the violence and madness that have shattered his life, but what he finds is what he least expects. It seems that every inhabitant of this forgotten outpost has a story, a reason for taking a detour to this place—or a reason for staying.
As the coach of the hapless high-school basketball team, Sam can’t help but be moved by the bravery he witnesses in the everyday lives of people—including his own young players—bearing their sorrows and broken dreams. How do they carry on, believing in a future that seems to be based on the flimsiest of promises? Drawing on the strength of the boys on the team, sharing the hope they display despite insurmountable odds, Sam finally begins to see a future worth living.
Author Stanley Gordon West has filled the town of Willow Creek with characters so vividly cast that they become as real as relatives, and their stories—so full of humor and passion, loss, and determination—illuminate a path into the human heart.
©2011 Stanley Gordon West (P)2011 HighBridge CompanyI was a little put off with the length of the book at first, but after listening to it, it couldn’t have been shorter.
It’s a very inspiring story, at times hilarious, at other times heartbreaking.
The only thing that I would have liked would be a couple more tied up lose ends for some of the characters, but it’s not necessary for it to be a great story.
Possibly the best book I’ve ever read or listened to!!!
Awesome Book!
