The Sonderman Constellation is a novel of conflict both on the personal and societal level. A young boy struggles to find his way through the maze of difficult personal relationships and the pressure of a rapidly changing society. Ostensibly cast in a present from 1950-56 the psychological milieu shifts from a past including FDR to a future of Richard Speck.
The huge cast of characters historical and fictional flash across the pages churning through the mind of the unknown narrator. Everyman speaks his mind, deconstructs and reconstructs his own and society's psychological state to bring order out of chaos, harmony out of discord. In only a couple hundred pages there are astonishing romps through psychology, mythology, stamp collecting, Mob activities and crime, murder, sex and mayhem. All within the context of a boy trying to get through Junior High and High School. Will he make it, can he make it, will they even let him into High School? That story alone is worth the price of admission. Don't wait. Act now. Give yourself an armchair trip. Place your order.
