He has recently gone through a divorce and is struggling to find meaning in his life. He goes on a series of adventures, including a road trip to Detroit, a visit to a casino, and a stay in a hotel in Atlantic City.<\/p>\n<p>Frank meets and reconnects with old acquaintances, including a former colleague and his ex-wife, and tries to make peace with his past. He also meets and falls in love with a woman named Ann Dykstra, who helps him to reevaluate his life and identity.
