This is the true story of a man who does what many in their late 20's always dream about, wander with a purpose.The author is a man in his late 20s, several years into the grind of life, who experiences the death of his father.This leads him to analyze his own life and is the catalyst for an adventure his father first started but was interrupted by life (work, family etc.)Walsh's dry wit and insights keeps the narrative moving along and is what separates this from a standard tale of a "quarter life crisis."I laughed out loud on a dozen different occasions."Bowling..." does a wonderful job capturing the angst, dilemmas and sources of happiness that is so typical of that segment of life.Walsh does a masterful job weaving in past experiences into the present that paints a wonderful self-portrait and offers the reader ample opportunity to relate.Scattered throughout are some wonderful insights on bowling, life, family and relationships.This is a great read.
