Inhaltsangabe

Book Synopsis: What Is Falling All About? Michael Tantalus has it all in the heady days of New York in the late 1990s. It’s a world away from his rural upbringing in Texas, and increasingly distant from his family life in Charlotte. Then, in 2001, when the World Trade Center is hit by terrorist planes, Michael is a witness, helpless and hopeless as the Towers fall. Repressing many of his memories, he embarks on an emotional journey that takes him far away from the decadent, dissonant double life he’s been leading to find wisdom and insight on the road and on a barstool in Curly’s Café. As the veils fall away, Michael uncovers layer after layer of the untruths that have clouded his perceptions, and he finds redemption in honesty, kindness, and the compassion of others. Who Will Enjoy This Book? This heart-stirring novel is for anyone who has ever lost the way, lost in love, or felt unequal to the challenges of meeting expectations of the world. Michael Tantalus shows how easy it is to lose ourselves and how hard it can be to recover from catastrophe. But his story reveals the peace and calm available to those who struggle to release themselves from the bonds of false perception, allowing themselves to access the powerful, abiding love at the center of everything.
