A childhood is bumps, bruises, giggles and embarrassment…butterflies, broken hearts and birthdays…new beginnings, the wondrous discovery of the world outside your home…of new sights, sounds, touches, and tastes…what next door really is and who lives there…
The Sail Needs the Wind has to do with what has occupied my thoughts for my entire adult life…and that is quite simply, life itself. How we move through its maze; how its essence enters us and how we deal with its moment-to-moment flood and simply survive… and in no cursory way, thoughts about the Creator.
In the summer of 1963, Jake, Donny and Dibs are looking forward to a fun-filled summer of laughs before moving to high school in the fall. The three boys’ parents, however, have different plans for their sons’ vacation.
The book is about the life of two young people, Donald and Phyllis, which took root and survived through hundreds of love letters. Married in 1940, they spent four months together.
