Too often divorced, discontent with life's compromises and in a house he hates, this lifelong schemer and eternal romantic would like out of his present circumstances and into the American dream. But when the twin calamities of the Great Recession and a cancer scare come along to compound his troubles, his dreams dwindle further, and an infinite past full of forking paths quickly tapers to a black dot. Then, against all odds, something goes right for a change: Charlie is granted a second act. With help from his storyteller son, he surveys the facts of his life and finds his true calling where he least expects it--in a sacrifice that resounds with selflessness and love--at last becoming the man his son always knew he could be. A Calling for Charlie Barnes is a profound and tender portrait of a man whose desperate need to be loved is his downfall, and a brutally funny account of how that love is ultimately earned.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hawaii Kai Public Library Adult Fiction Ferris Checked In Add Copy to MyList Lihue Public Library Adult Fiction Ferris Checked In Add Copy to MyList Makawao Public Library Adult Fiction Ferris Checked In Add Copy to MyList Mililani Public Library Adult Fiction Ferris Checked In Add Copy to MyList Thelma Parker Memorial P/S Library Adult Fiction Ferris Checked In Add Copy to MyList Wahiawa Public Library Adult Fiction Ferris Checked In Add Copy to MyList Waikiki-Kapahulu Public Library Adult Fiction Ferris Checked In Add Copy to MyList Wailuku Public Library Adult Fiction Ferris Checked In Add Copy to MyList
