Limitless Publishing has acquired Ken La Salle’s novel, Heaven
Enough!
Heaven Enough (release 2015)
“Heaven Enough” is a poem about longing, about wishing for
something more. “What would it be like if I had heaven enough?” it reads.
Matt Murphy reads these words for
the first time at his wife’s funeral when he is presented with a book of
sonnets by an attendee. He and Diva were married for nearly twenty years, yet
he did not “know” her. A poet and lover of culinary delights, among many other
things, she is struck by a car and killed instantly on the wrong side of town.
What was she doing there? A poet laureate? What else?
When her brother, “the monk,” comes
for the funeral, Matt is set on a course unprecedented. Diva’s computer is
covered in hiking information set for that coming Friday— to hike the PCT (Pacific
Crest Trail) of 2668 miles from the Mexican border to Canada. He takes this
upon himself to do, and also to sprinkle Diva’s ashes along the way. What
happens in the first two hours is dumbfounding; what happens next changes his
life forever.
Inspired at a young age by Robert Pirsig’s Zen
& The Art of Motorcycle Maintenance, La Salle studied philosophy at
California State University, Fullerton. This slight dichotomy from work as a
stage actor and singer quickly infected all of his writing until he left all
other passions behind for writing alone. www.kenlasalle.com
