About this ebook
In the late 1970s, Chucky O'Malley faces a midlife crisis as he searches for renewal and hope amidst a nation reeling from Vietnam and Watergate.
Father Andrew M. Greeley continues his chronicles of the O'Malleys, a resourceful Irish-American family caught up in modern American history. In Second Spring, Charles "Chucky" O'Malley approaches fifty in 1978, struggling with disillusionment and depression despite a loving wife and thriving photography career.
As Chucky travels from the Vatican, where a new pope is to be selected, to Jimmy Carter's White House, where the president seeks to cure the nation's malaise, he searches for a way to renew his weary spirit. With the loving support of his family, especially his irrepressible wife Rosemarie, Chucky strives to rediscover his lost optimism in time for a second spring.
The fifth novel in the O'Malley saga, following A Midwinter's Tale, Younger than Springtime, A Christmas Wedding, and September Song, Second Spring continues to delight readers with its blend of family, faith, and history.
