About this listen

Part family drama and part self-actualization story, this is about Donna Greco, who in her teens, subscribes to a conventional view of success in life and pushes her freewheeling, artistic brother, Vincent, to do the same. However, he remains single, childless, and subsists in cramped apartments. She harbors guilt for her supposed failure to ensure his happiness, until she discovers a book of sketches he made of his life, which allows her to see his internal joy and discover the secret to living free.

Thought-provoking, humorous, and filled with unforgettable characters, this book invites listeners to ponder what pictures they will have of themselves by the end of their lives.

"A refreshing family portrait about interpersonal evolution...presented with affection, humor, and insight...an inspiring slice of life blend of philosophy, psychology, and transformation that draws readers into a warm story and examines the wellsprings of creative force and future legacies...evocative, uplifting." (Midwest Book Review)
