A Great Read

   Steve Lopez' novel "The Soloist: A Lost Dream, an

   Unlikely Friendship, and the Redemptive Power

   of Music"  (Putnam, 2008)

 

If you haven't seen the movie "The Soloist" it's definitely one you should plan

to rent as soon as it's released.  Several Mental health organizations have held

screenings of the movie.  It covers mental illness and homelessness, the story

is certainly eyeopening.
