Listening is an act of love

I just finished reading Dave Isay's book of essays taken from the thousands of hours of recordings at the story corps project. The stories are funny and full of pathos, made me laugh and cry and feel great empathy for the people telling their stories. If you read one book this summer, let this be it! I had this for weeks from the library, wasn't sure if I would read it and almost took it back, then I finally opened it yesterday and couldn't put it down! So glad I didn't let this slip through my fingers!
