Fans of award-winning memoirist Marlayna Glynn know her father was a tortured, unrepentant alcoholic in life. Wondering at the possibility of his redemption after death, the author extends a sensitive and beautifully written invitation for readers to walk their path across Central America and the Caribbean. In her effort to conquer the generational effects of alcoholism, Marlayna takes her teenaged son along on a tender six month journey to introduce her father to a world he did not know. The author strives to understand the man she did not know in life, as well as break through the barriers her youngest son has erected. "One of the most poignant aspects of this book is the author's insertion of letters which she imagines her father may have written as she arrives at each destination where his ashes will be spread. It is a deeply touching look into the heart and soul of the author as she imagines her father's reaction to her journey." - Robbie, Book Reviewer While death and grief are personal, this work is a relatable must-read for anyone who has lost a loved one, particularly those who have unresolved issues. This fantasy memoir blazes a path to the afterlife where understanding and forgiveness supersede pain, blame, remorse and regret.
