Return To The Why Cafe

Sequel to the international bestseller, The Why Cafe.

While on vacation to escape an unfulfilling job, John gets hopelessly lost and ends up at a café where the menu poses questions like "Why are you here?"

John finds himself sitting in a small cafe facing three questions on the menu: Why are you here? Do you fear death? Are you fulfilled? As he thinks about these things, he sets off on a journey of self-discovery in a novel which offers readers food for thought and a new to see themselves and the world around them.

In a small diner at a location so remote that it stands in the middle of the middle of nowhere, John-a man in a hurry-is at a literal and figurative crossroads. Intent only on refueling before moving along on his road trip, John finds sustenance of an entirely different kind: in addition to the specials of the day, the menu lists three questions that all diners are encouraged to consider: Why are you here? Do you fear death? Are you fulfilled? With the guidance of three people he meets at the cafe, John embarks on a quest for answers that metaphorically takes him from the executive suites of the advertising world to the surf of Hawaii's coastline. Along the way, he discovers a new way to look at his life and relationships... and just how much you can learn from a green sea turtle. The Why Cafe will get readers young and free and older and entrenched to rethink their personal yardstick for success. Charming, simple, and inspiring, it will change lives.
