Quoting Mister Barnes: "We are, each of us, a mystery, rummaging our way through life, searching for a variety of treasures. Writing, in my opinion, is an important part of that journey, a venture into that most magical of places, oneself. When the writing is going well I find I am not so much the writer as the first reader, and as a reader I would like to recommend this book to you--I rather enjoyed it. Read More Read Less
