The Walk

The Walk was a book that I never, ever would have read had not my dear, dear friend Beth recommended it to me.  Since I started reading it, I can't get this old song about of my head.
My friend lost her husband last spring, but she read this book years before her love passed away.  But that is how the book begins, with a young man losing his wife and job and house and deciding to walk from Seattle to the Florida Keys.
This is one of the best, best books I have ever read.
