Title: A disappointing journey into the human condition.
Product review: While traveling with the author through locales, both physical and metaphysical, the book overreaches in its attempts to know and celebrate the soft, vulnerable underside of the human condition. Shared experiences that might have felt authentic and profound if conveyed, perhaps, with a lighter touch straddle the maudlin; being saccharin and preachy when sweetness and insight are just out of reach. The author's conspicuous omission of any reference to his first marriage and children further undermines his credibility as a bearer of genuine soul and seeker of truth.
