Against a Wall Street backdrop of big paydays and bigger losses, "The Altar Boy" is a wry tale of two bankers on the bumpy road to enlightenment: one finding perfection in the personals, the other seeking direction from a couple in their twilight years. Thier paths intersect in the person of Cody Meade, an eccentric, lusty woman with a firm grip on what she wants. The result is moving and funny, much like the sound of the heart.
"The Altar Boy" is rich with colorful characters who linger in the imagination-- a brisk read for anyone who has experienced the frustration of moving forward while looking back.

The Altar Boy
A cautionary tale for ambitious people, because who likes ambitious people? Not me. I can best describe it as kind of like Atlas Shrugged, but you know, the complete opposite, so good. Also, it's short. So if you hated Atlas Shrugged'and there are plenty of reasons to hate Atlas Shrugged'you'll probably love Martin Dressler.
True story: I went out to eat at a restaurant in Brooklyn, The Dressler. I asked our waiter if the restaurant was named after this book. It turns out it was, indeed, named after this book, and in fact, it's the owner's favorite book. I think we got a free desert out of it. I've never gotten free desert from an Ayn Rand fan. Have you?
