このコンテンツについて
A marvelous debut novel about love and basketball, time travel and rock 'n' roll. Thirty years in the writing, Selden Edwards' dazzling first novel is an irresistible triumph of the imagination.
Wheeler Burden - banking heir, philosopher, student of history, legend's son, rock idol, writer, lover, recluse, half-Jew, and Harvard baseball hero - one day finds himself wandering not in his hometown of San Francisco in 1988 but in a city and time he knows mysteriously well: Vienna, 1897. Before long, Wheeler acquires a mentor in Sigmund Freud, a bitter rival, a powerful crush on a luminous young woman, and encounters everyone from an eight-year-old Adolf Hitler to Mark Twain, as well as the young members of his own family.
Solving the riddle of Wheeler's dislocation in time will ultimately reveal nothing short of one eccentric family's unrivaled impact upon the course of human history.
Edwards brilliantly weaves romance, art, sci-fi, history, and culture in this unforgettable debut novel. A great YA listen for those looking for a true adventure!
