Read "Crazy for the Storm" by Norman Ollestad. Now. Go on. GO!
I could not put own this personal memoir of a young boy who is the sole survivor of a plane crash that killed his father and his father's girlfriend. The book describes his younger years with his father who would push himself and his son to the limits in the surf and on the slopes where they lived in a sort of counterculture paradise.
The story is thoughtful and evocative, a perfect showcase of Ollestad's elegant and moving writing abilities.
It is available on Amazon.com and is a definite must-read.
Go on now.
