Book excerpt: Named a best book of the year by NPR, Vogue, and the New York Times Book Review, the hilarious and profound new novel from National Book Award finalist Joshua Ferris is “a fine American novel about family, love, and a decent but flawed man trying to be better" (Stephen King). Someone is telling the story of the life of Charlie Barnes, and it doesn't appear to be going well. 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 redounds 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. “A masterpiece that shines a revealing light on both family and fiction itself.” —Michael Schaub, NPR

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: HOW DID THIS BOOK COME ABOUT? About ten years ago I sustained a series of downward turns during which I lost everything I considered vital to my existence. In the end, I came to realize, what Id really lost was me. So I began to write daily journals to help myself heal. Early in my recovery, I had a dream about two celestial creatures, Beast and Priest, who decided to play The Game to decide which of them would control all mens souls, including my own. Never did I imagine those first few sentences I wrote in my journal the morning after my dream would result in a two volume book which documented the journey of a tortured soul named Kat Walker into the Great Abyss and beyond. When his courage proved to all his heart was pure again, he got one last chance at life. Kat Walker and I completed this book together to prove to all who enter its pages there is always hope if you believe in the power of love and that miracles are real.
