Life's Rebellion, A Beautiful Death: A Son-Father Story (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781977245540)

This is a father and son story that weaves through an era of tumultuous social change toward a lifetime of healing. From a bicultural family life in the socialist setting of the Panama Canal Zone to a death by voluntarily stopping eating and drinking (VSED), at times these pages read with the whimsy of childhood memory and at times with the weighty and impassioned words of facing our mortality. Moving through vignettes of a boy at play in tropical jungles, a family's various migrations, or a dying father's gusto and gratitude for life, you'll hitchhike, you'll sing, you'll play baseball, and you'll grieve. Perhaps you'll ask the ancient questions to the Great Mystery that is life and death, pondering, "Where do we go from here?"
