In a hermitage at the top of a mountain lives the Holy Man. Every summer a trail of pilgrims lines up to see him, hoping for words of wisdom that will heal their lives.
Each chapter of this charming book tells the tale of a pilgrim and his problem There is a man who is incurably jealous of his wife, the grandmother who never receives thank-you notes from her grandchildren,the war veteran who can’t forgive himself for the lives he took. Some learn their lessons from other pilgrims, some from the holy man himself; others find answers from the experience of being on the mountain. These stories unravel the knots of everyday anxieties with profound ease, humor, wisdom, and elegance.Perhaps the most winning feature of this book is that we are all in here,somewhere, with our wounded egos, insecurities, bad tempers, impatience, and ambitiousness. The Holy Man shows us the good we already have in us but cannot see.
“Throughout, Trott’s inventive mind and playful chracterizations surprise us.” – San Francisco Chronicle
“A modern-day allegory … with a keen intelligence and a surprisingly wry humor.” – Kirkus Reviews
“Reminiscent of Chaucer’s Canterbury Tales, the book cleverly encapsulates much of the human search for wisdom and happiness. The Holy Man dispenses a fresh brand of wisdom. With wit and modern insight, it compels readers to look inward, to turn to themselves, for enlightenment.” – Booklist
