About this title

Synopsis

What is the value of an ordinary guy’s life and who assesses that value? As Tom Albright approaches the end of his days on earth, five individuals meet to evaluate his life. They begin with hearing and commenting on a baby boomer who grew up with illusions of battlefield glory only to lose those illusions during the turbulence of the 60’s. Likewise, Tom immersed himself in idealized visions of athletic glory, academic success, racial harmony, romantic love, and religious faith. Like many of his generation, his life story centers on the clash of untested ideal concepts with the blunt, inescapable forces of reality. In this examination of Tom’s life, the five who form the convocation will learn as much about themselves as they do about Tom. Like the subject of their study, some will pass on to a new life.
