This is one of the best books I've read in a long time. It's based on the most universal and endearing philosophies of religion... going into the afterlife with the ability to intimately know the people you immediately meet, as being the people you grew up around, loved and respected... parents, friends, teachers. Interspersed with the continuing thread of a deeply entwined community are interesting and emotive vignettes of people on the periphery. I cried, sighed, chuckled, and laughed out loud. It could be that it lent itself to the holiday season, with it's family-ties eccentricities and homespun humor, but if you read this book based on my recommendation and don't like it, I'd love to buy you dinner and talk about why.
