The Fool's Progress : An Honest Novel

Rating:
Summary: Humourous and Profound
Review: Yeah thats right Profound...My god ..when I read a Fools Progress I was blown away. The kind of book that makes you truly glad to be alive. You know the kind where you get goose bumps and then go outside to stare at the stars and ruminate on the human condition. I had that feeling with very few books Maybe Jack London's "Call of the Wild" or Ayn Rands "The Fountainhead" both read when I was young .. I never thought I'd feel that way about a book again but I had it in middle age....with this one. One of the top 3 or 4 books Ive read period. Maybe more than any book (Including somthing by Thoreau) this book reminds you what it means to lead a simple life....and preferably one outdoors. I spent 24 years in the military and this book reminded of the joy of going home again after being off the path. I cried it was so moving. Can't say enough .. a truly truly great book.
