En savoir plus sur le livre

In the long awaited sequel to Fire in the Belly father and son authors Sam Keen and Gifford Keen write the next chapter of one of the defining books of the men's movement. Filled with personal stories of their own struggles and breakthroughs Prodigal Father, Wayward Son is a warm and engaging book on masculinity, and a compelling and dynamic invitation for readers to recall the memories that define their own father­and­son relationships.A central theme of the men's movement was the alienation between sons and fathers, but after having explored this theme, the movement stalled. Similar to the memoirs of Pat Conroy and Andre Dubus III about their fathers, Prodigal Father, Wayward Son points to the next chapter in that story ­ the reconciliation of fathers and sons. Sam and Gifford Keen provide guidance and inspiration to those looking for positive role models and teach new ways to move beyond old wounds. They offer proven and concrete methods to overcome long standing enmities and misunderstanding and become reconciled through a process of telling our long­held, but often unexamined, myths and stories.With Prodigal Father, Wayward Son Sam Keen delivers the crowing achievement of his remarkable literary career and a moving account of repentance, forgiveness and reconciliation that sets it apart from any other books in this genre.
