TV Book Club: Andrew McCarthy's 'The Longest Way Home'
Andrew McCarthy's The Longest Way Home wasn't the book I expected it to be. It was a pleasant surprise, a touching exploration of humanity that I couldn't put down once I'd started.

This book seemed as if it would answer that question, and give me some insight into a man whose work I'd loved for so many years.
I was mostly right. The Longest Way Home is an excellent intr...
