Monk Downstairs

Tim Farrington

A touching little “feel-good” novel that I think almost everyone would enjoy. The novel is well-crafted, and the characters are interesting and worth getting to know. It is about a very interesting relationship between a single mother and the gentleman who has just left a monastery to move in and rent her in-law apartment in the Sunset District of San Francisco. This book is a real charmer and both Dena and I really enjoyed it.
