Opis

Imagine a baby boy born in the last year of World War II to parents who, pre-war, were the darlings of the town. The father, a four-letter man, the golden boy of the town and state's athletic fields, and his spirited and beautiful bride, both enormously engaging personalities. The son knows his father both through the legendary, pre-war stories he has heard about him and his bride and as a one-legged casualty of the Battle of the Bulge, a powerful and embittered man, who returns from the war. How to square those two versions of his parents, and of his father especially? That is the subject matter of Father Figure-that quest and lengths to which the son is willing to go to regain a father he never had and the efforts of a sister and a past lover to save him before he goes too far
