The Giant Av Vian Andrews

Down-and-out and living on the skids, his marriage over, his kids estranged, a desperate alcoholic takes refuge in a local park where he encounters an old man. Over a period of summer days, the old man tells him the tale of a king whose insane addiction caused him to destroy his kingdom and how the king regained his sanity by climbing a formidable mountain, The Giant, in the company of his wise and loyal chamberlain. The old man's story and friendship inspires John Robert to summon the courage to embark on a journey to his own recovery.
