Book excerpt: It's 1958. Gas is 25 cents a gallon. The USA has just launched its first satellite into orbit. Elvis Presley has been inducted into the US Army. And a little boy named Buddy has just been born into a black and white world. Twenty-four years later, that boy, now a young man, is left in a coma by a car accident. When his father-a devout Nebraska farmer-visits Buddy in the hospital, he discovers they are able to communicate telepathically. Through a week of mental conversations and time travel, they revisit the events and secrets of two decades that made them strangers to each other. A dog with two names shepherds them through the path of betrayal, abuse, and-eventually-reconciliation. Told with devastating simplicity and magic, this small novel will change the way you look at rainbows forever.
