Here's to Joe" by David Becker, Ottawa (Canada) artist and writer. Sold on Amazon. An intelligent, gentle examination of a few unusual lives in a rural Nova Scotia location. An artist, struggling to put his life and career on a better trajectory meets a gal who is struggling to overcome a bad childhood while managing her father's small bar. The artist finds a journal in the shed of the run-down house he rented for the summer. The journal leads him back into the lives of the people around him. The story is revealed and handled with Canadian kindness, niceness, and patience. A lovely, non-typical, heartwarming read.
