Dan McCrory has written a novel that is sparse and raw. It is the story of Charlie Wise, asshole. He has cheated on his wife for years, forsaken his friends past and present, and left behind a trail of broken hearts and broken people. When he announces a diagnosis of Parkinson's Disease as a death sentence, nobody cares. In his search for salvation, he travels to Thailand and Morocco and finally comes home to make amends and finish his Great American Novel. His apology tour takes him into the heart of Texas and into a half-forgotten past that may just transform him.
