Description
"What's the point of being Irish anyway if you don't think the world will break your heart" asks Jack Kennedy. He is spellbound by a song about Ireland's neverland of dreams: "How Are Things in Glocca Morra" No one better knew the real JFK's dreams and passions than Lem Billings, a prep-school roommate who made himself "sidekick everlasting."
