<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Weaving a tale of immense power in his magical voice, Kleiner tells the story of a man determined to realize an improbable dream after the death of his best friend.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>Eighty-year-old George Castor promised he would never let his best friend Ralph die alone at the Silver Gardens Nursing Home--but Ralph passed on while George was away fishing. Distraught, guilt-stricken and seeking redemption, George buys a broken-down mansion in Looking glass, Oregon, paints it fire-engine red, and begins searching for other old folks to share it with him. Because George has made a new promise that will alter the course of the rest of his life. And, with the help of a miraculous old woman named Grace, he assembles a ragtag bunch of aging strangers, determined to make their last days on earth--and his own--an adventure.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"A lovingly told story of aging...an insightful story about reconciliation--finding peace with our mistakes and each other. And it's apoignant story about dying with dignity--or at least flair...[Kleiner] has captured the essence of aging in these endearing, cantankerous, and very human characters."-- "Chicago Tribune"<br>
