aThere was nothing miraculous about me, a recalls Victor Meeks, a disillusioned young man whoaas far as heas concernedais more than two decades overdue for the morgue. Twenty-two years earlier, the spectacular overcoming of a childhood illness transformed Victoras life into a worldwide (and short lived) phenomenon, instilling him with the notion that he was somehow special. Coming to terms with this apparent lie has since earned Victor a lifetime of failures, ultimately costing him his family, his friends, and the love of his life, Celeste. Accompanied by his only friend, Wixaa quirky young man with a tragic historyaVictor settles into an existence of complacency, enlivened only by the notion that a premature death might still claim his life in the end. But when Victor and Wix are reunited with Ralph T. Willburyaa mysterious individual from their mutually repressed pastsathe rusty gears of idling lives are spurred into motion, setting off a series of events that thrust all of Victoras failuresapast and presentainto one chaotic mix. Days of the Meek is a story about faith and hope, triumph and failure, and the idea that maybeajust maybeamiracles are possible after all.
