Life couldn’t get any more complicated for
Charles (Charlie) Schultz, a young WWI veteran who is hiding out at his
sister’s house to escape a loveless marriage to a woman he barely knows. However, life takes an unexpected turn for
Charlie in the Christian fiction novel The
Telegram, when he receives a telegram declaring his wife’s sudden
death. Charlie feels guilty about his
lack of charity concerning his wife’s passing and journeys back to his hometown of Guyandotte,
West Virginia to seek counsel from his best friend, Otis, a minister. The return home begins a series of flashbacks
for Charlie of memories of growing up in a Christian home, train hopping with
Otis and engaging in misadventures with his Army buddies in the early
1900s. Through it all, Charlie stays close
to God and his Christian faith, through prayer, as he realizes his calling in
God’s plan for his life.
