About book

Relative Distance is a powerful memoir of resilience and faith. While it's an unflinching look at brothers being raised by a violent, abusive father and a detached, mentally ill mother, it's also an inspiring account of two distinctive life journeys and an examination of the role played by family and society in individual homelessness.    After surviving his tumultuous upbringing, David Pruitt rises to become a CEO in Corporate America, while his brother, Danny, becomes a long-time homeless traveler. As David helps to grow a fledgling North Carolina business into what is at the time the largest specialty bicycle retailer in the United States, Danny sleeps under overpasses, jumps passing freight cars, lives in and out of shelters, faces death more than once - and encounters the best and worst of America in a restless search to find a better place in the world. Yet, despite their differences, a common thread runs through the distinct trajectories of the brothers' lives: each of them struggles with difficult psychological issues stemming from their troubled past.    This deeply moving memoir examines the lifelong challenges that often come for those raised in an abusive home, along with the limitless possibilities we open ourselves to when we allow faith and determination to overcome judgment and fear.
