I found the layout of this book quite charming.  It opens with a young lady assembling an artificial Christmas tree while her Grandfather recounts his eternal love for her Gramma.  As a young man, Gork sought the meaning of life and where he was going in a cosmic manner, when he headed for California for an archeological dig to find remains of the earliest man.  While en route, he is trapped in a sand storm and meets Itbee, Ustubee and Yetubee.  Similar to the ghosts of Christmas Past, Present and Yet to Be, they give him everything he needs to know, he just has to unlock their riddling way of answering.  Itbee explains that Gork must carry Ustubee on his back because they cannot get to Yetubee without him, which is him saying that you must carry your past with you in order to find your future.  This was a wonderful book with deep thought provoking aspects, charming characters and a sweet romantic spirit that is sure to make this one of my favorite new authors.  I cannot encourage you to read this book enough.  You'll thank me!
