Ravan's Winter F.a. Loomis

Ravan's Winter is Vol. 2 of the Upper Burnt Ruby Creek Trilogy. Frank Ravan, the searching hero of Frankie Ravan, Vol. 1, continues his spiritual journey in the Vietnam era, trying to develop a set of values that will endure the surprising tests of friendship, love, family, and death. In Vol. 2 Frank still reveres the sense of beauty that his grandfather pointed to as a guide in life, even as he says farewell to more friends who have succumbed to tragic deaths. There is less humor in Vol. 2 as Frank faces some of his generation's more serious issues such as drugs, sexual infidelity, and war. This is his winter.
