[EAN: 9780981617503], Neubuch, [PU: Bridge Works Publishing Co ,U.S., United States], Language: English . Brand New Book. When Gordon Clay, a failed musician turned community college music instructor, suffers chest pains, he fears heart disease. But in fact he is suffering a midlife crisis one compounded by loneliness, professional disappointment and spiritual doubts. Chest Pains is a novel that explores these somber circumstances - and how they are eventually overcome - with wit, whimsy and irony. The novel is framed by the worlds of music, academia, marathons, religious faith and religious skepticism - all worlds known firsthand by the author.Chest Pains is set in California where Gordon, who once dreamed of a career as a double bass player, finds little pleasure in life, except for his cats and dinner of salted peanuts and beer. An irreverent lapsed Catholic, he begins to tutor one of his least promising students, Cecelia, a tone-deaf, marathon-running ex-nun who is convinced God has chosen her for a calling in music. In a park he befriends Moopuna, a young boy of Pacific Island and African descent. He later begins a relationship with the child s young, unwed Polynesian mother. Gordon s hopes for a professional career and a traditional family don t materialize, but through unlikely characters such as these he gradually finds fulfillment in other ways, and with it a restoration of faith.<
