The Man Who Listens – Taylor Caldwell

Nobody has time to listen to anyone, not even those who love you and would die for you. Your parents, your children, your friends: they have no time. This Lack of a sympathetic ear, of someone who will really listen to one’s problems, is one of the tragic truths of modern life. Here, in a novel of unusual honesty and touching simplicity, Taylor Caldwell has written an inspiring story of how the desperate, the troubled, and the unloved find help and inner peace through the legacy of a wise and saintly fellow townsman.
