Book Description
Ben Taylor has been a workaholic in his efforts to climb the proverbial corporate ladder within his company. His drive to succeed consumed him, leaving little time for his wife and three children. The few moments he did spend with them were on those rare Saturdays when he stayed home and they helped him plant flowers in the backyard. Now in his fifties, Ben finally realizes his mistakes and reduces his work hours. However, it is too little, too late. His children are grown and live far away with his grandchildren. Filled with many regrets, Ben decides to start searching for his real purpose in life. Fortunately, his twelve-year-old neighbor, Andy, may be just what Ben needs to change his life. He treats Andy like a grandson and feels that the Lord has provided him with a second chance to atone for his past. Ben notices how Andy appears to become mesmerized while watching the Tiger Swallowtail butterflies that come to the backyard. Andy's unusual experiences with the Tigers affect Ben's relationship with God. The events that follow send Ben on an adventure in faith with astonishing twists and turns, taking him on a spiritual journey he never dreamed possible.

Pages : 827
Book Description
“A masterpiece that can compare with Steinbeck’s East of Eden. … Some books make you laugh; some make you cry; some make you think. The Prince of Tides is a rarity: It does all three.” — Detroit Free Press A modern American classic and a family saga that spans decades, this is the story of the volatile Tom Wingo, his brilliant but troubled twin sister, Savannah, and the complex and damaging family legacy they share. Moving between the sparkling glamour of New York City and the vanishing beauty of the South Carolina low country, The Prince of Tides is Pat Conroy’s masterwork. “A big, sprawling saga of a novel…the kind you hole up with and spend some days with and put down feeling you have emerged from a terrible, wonderful spell.” —San Francisco Chronicle “A literary gem . . . The Prince of Tides is in the best tradition of novel writing. It is an engrossing story of unforgettable characters.” —The Pittsburgh Press
