The Real Question - Adrian Fogelin - Bog

For Fisher Brown, bearing the responsibility for the well-being and happiness of the people around him is a heavy burden. Under the strict supervision of his high school counselor father, he is jockeying for position at the top of his high school class. Its a challenging role, and one he has doubts about. So when Fisher meets Lonnie Traynor, whose rootless, carefree existence is so markedly different from his own, he is drawn to his take-life-as-it-comes attitude. Lonnie easily cons him into accompanying him on a weekend outing that turns into an extended road trip. But Lonnies footloose ways reveal a troubled man with a long history of letting down the people he loves. As Fisher becomes an unwitting participant in Lonnies hapless adventure, he begins to rethink what it means to be responsible for other people.
