About this listen
A Second Bite: A Poignant Tale of Redemption
Winner of Five Stars from Readers' Favorite
In the twilight of his life, Cathal Dunne sits in his garden, sipping red lemonade and reflecting on a life marred by hardship, loneliness, and unfulfilled dreams. From a childhood overshadowed by poverty, bullying, and rigid authority, to an adulthood marked by fleeting joys and relentless setbacks, Cathal’s existence has been a library of sad stories. Now, confined to a wheelchair and nearing the end, he yearns for a second chance—a life where joy outweighs despair, and where he can rewrite the narrative of his past.
When a mysterious Buddhist monk arrives, Cathal seizes the opportunity to chase enlightenment and reincarnation, hoping to trade his painful memories for a fresh beginning filled with happiness and prosperity. But as the monk challenges his perceptions of life, fate, and fulfillment, Cathal must confront a profound question: can a "do-over" truly heal the wounds of a lifetime, or is peace found in embracing the present?
A Second Bite is a deeply moving and introspective novel that blends Irish nostalgia with universal themes of regret, resilience, and the search for meaning. Cathal’s journey—infused with vivid memories, heartfelt longing, and a touch of mystical hope—will resonate with readers who crave stories that explore the human spirit’s capacity for renewal. Perfect for fans of introspective fiction and tales of second chances, this little gem will leave you pondering the delicate balance between fate and choice.
Discover Cathal’s quest for a second bite at the cherry—a story that reminds us it’s never too late to rewrite our ending.
Readers' Favorite - "Ultimately, this heartfelt exploration of life's possibilities is a recommendation for anyone who appreciates introspective and transformative stories."
