When Liam s life falls apart, he finds himself lugging bags of cement around a construction site, clinging to a past that no longer exists. Each day is a struggle against despair, with a discarded engagement ring burning in his pocket and the mocking laughter of old friends echoing in his mind. But in the dust of his lowest moments, an unlikely stranger with a worn leather jacket and a thermos of coffee crosses his path, offering advice that ignites a spark of hope. From quiet parks to distant mountains, My Friend John is a visceral journey about hitting rock bottom and finding the strength to rise. With characters that seem to leap from real life and a narrative that weaves pain, humor, and renewal, this book is an invitation to those who have faced darkness and discovered that, even in the ashes, there is room to begin again.
