FOR DISTRIBUTION OUTSIDE THE USA. Award-winning novelist Walter Wangerin Jr. and his adopted son, Matthew, share their deeply personal story. Each in his own words, father and son narrate the history of their relationship and how they found new meaning—and new identities—through times of brokenness, hope, and rediscovery. Father and Son is a profound meditation on fatherly love and a son's independence¬â€”and one family's search for reconciliation.
