Here's the Book Oprah SHOULD Have Picked!

A formerly homeless man has written a series of articles for an award-winning urban magazine that are now featured in a series of "true tales" of his adventures and exploits on the "mean streets" of a midwestern city. Unlike previous books of this genre, the author, Robert Lipscomb, doesn't fit the usual profile for persons who have experienced homelessness and existential despair. In fact, he once had it all; his own business, a trophy wife who had played a role in the Oscar-winning movie "The Fugitive", the American Dream. Then, in a series of stunning moves, he walked away from it all.
Also different from recent disasters like Frey's "Million Little Pieces" which proved to be substantially fabricated, "Down Town" has been written in full view of hundreds of fellow-travelers,friends and members of Lipscomb's downtown church. This book is the real deal.
Often poignant, sometimes rather pithy, always pointed, this story is one man's inspirational tale of personal demolition followed by a miraculous climb back to the summit of true faith, new love and recovered prosperity.
This is the book Oprah should have picked. This is the real deal.
