Opis

A riveting novel with a powerful message about life, love, and values, A Noteworthy Life chronicles the strivings and life lessons of a young author-hopeful, Benjamin. Propelled by the lure of wealth and success, this starving-artist from New York City is determined to cash in on his writing talent and make the big time. Discouraged by the lack of sales over his previous science-fiction work, Benjamin decides that the answer to his quest for wealth must lie in pinpointing an individual who has lived what he considers "a noteworthy life" and capturing his or her life experiences in an inspiring new volume. Little does Benjamin know, he is about to meet Eric, an eccentric older man whose stories of travel, luck, love, and loss will forever change the way Benjamin views his own life. Drawn to his wise new companion, Benjamin eagerly awaits his lively conversations with Eric, in anticipation of creating a new bestseller from the storehouses of the older man's life. But when Eric passes away unexpectedly, Benjamin feels lost and hopeless once more-that is, until he discovers the value of the gift that Eric left behind just for him. It is a gift that will take Benjamin to many places all across the country and introduce him to people of all different walks and lifestyles. It is a gift that will infuse Benjamin with the passion he has been lacking, a gift that will challenge his views on love and life-a gift that, most of all, will forever redefine what truly qualifies as "a noteworthy life."
