About this listen

 “A wild, juicy history of four families whose lives converge in bucolic Barrington in the sixties, with a sly eye to the future. Laced with poetry, music, philosophical musings and baseball, it ranges from the Midwest to Texas, Hawaii, the Dominican Republic and beyond. It exposes the underpinnings of a seemingly perfect, privileged community, while it celebrates the singular landscapes and characters that existed in a special place and time.” Becky Harlan Laughlin Four lifelong buddies ramble on. Barrington, Illinois accedes to points South, then back to Chicago. Finally, the compass tends north by northwest. You could say Four Fathers, in each of its volumes, is about "sex, and drugs, and rock and roll." Or you could say it is about the older virtues, "wine, women, and song." Anyway you want it- you will end up humming the same happy tune. Four Fathers is everyone’s tale even as it is unique to its characters. The bygone past is traveled without benefit of GPS. “Four Gigs” has an entirely different meaning in what is now virtual antiquity. The four fellow travelers stumble upon the raw and the cooked. The pages of the book of life form their dreams as their dreams form them. Missteps mark the way; but, after all, that is what the ride is all about. Joe Cebellum, Fred Etheridge, Tommy Wanderby, and Sam Thorn, step into the tumult to find the sybaritic and the kinesthetic. Confusion finds comfort from the storm disproving the notion you can’t find your way home. Volume One- “For Whom the Book Tells” - traces the early influences of nature and nurture. Exploration and wonder are the watchwords. This Volume leaves the four lifelong friends upon a precipice of the turmoil of the times. The complete series, all 10 Four Fathers Volumes- available now. The Lost Generation is reborn amidst a swirl in the ‘60s. The four friends find more than a little help. The adventure is replete while not yet culminated. Adventure looms deep and weaves a magic spell. “It’s only words and pages-with shadowy reminiscence, and I like it.” James Kampert Coming of Age Genre Fiction Dream
