The Tuesday Readers Book Club is finishing our current book, The Reluctant Journey of David Connors by Don Locke.
Mr. Locke is here tonight to talk to us about it.
From Publishers Weekly: In this unusual novel, Locke, a writer for NBC's Tonight Show, takes readers on a surreal journey involving a magic carpetbag, with mixed results. David Connors is a Chicago video games art director who has let alcohol and an inability to get in touch with his feelings separate him from his wife and two young children. The Christmas season only exacerbates these feelings, and he throws himself out of his 39th-floor office window. When his life is spared, a magic carpetbag he's discovered provides endless objects that hold clues to his past.
