Once again readers are introduced to the strange John Godfrey sanctuary, where the Man who Listens soothes the frightened and despairing of the world. This time the sad samples who pour out their case histories include a minister who has lost his faith, a 33-year-old playboy who never grew up, a rich man who has nothing except money, and a Negro agonizing...
