"Ben goes toward the inevitable end for us all and still manages to keep things engaging and light and full of a power that I believe Ben is just starting to open up in his work." My Father's House gets some Goodreads love. And likes it. A lot.

Indeed it does. Big time. And from the quite fine writer, and friend, yes we said it, friend, Tom Williams at that. Many thanks man, drinks on us for sure and now some excerpt. Enjoy.

"Make no mistake, this is an indelibly sad book, but heartwarming and uplifting too, and evidence that Ben has new directions for his fiction. I'm glad to call him my friend, but even if he were just the smiling face on the back cover, I'd still call MY FATHER'S HOUSE the small miracle that it is."
