Dan Geiger's memoir tells the kind of story most of us have lived in our hearts but seldom shared. In turn, he gives us permission to embrace our own shortcomings. In Bless Me, Father, for I Have Sinned, he paints a picture of a young man coming of age in remote Montana while buffeted by the Cold War, religion, family, the tumultuous 60s and the Vietnam War. He shows us how to laugh at our own susceptibilities, confess our outrageous behaviors, suffer the loss of dear friends and heal our hearts of all that life throws at us. Read and enjoy the adventures of youth, first loves, road trips, religious guilt and, hopefully, enlightenment learned the hard way.
