About this audiobook
Leo Marche grows up in California’s drought-plagued Central Valley, haunted by a dream of a water glass he cannot reach. A teacher names his unnamed longing: thirst for greatness. After a fire destroys his mother’s art studio and unearths her buried hunger, Leo writes his way from farm boy to published journalist. He chronicles the real thirst of farmers, mothers, and children in a drying land. Through losses and loves, mentors and muses, Leo learns that greatness is not a destination it is the relentless act of reaching. The thirst never ends. The thirst is the point.
