| | | An irresistible triumph of the imagination more than 30 years in the making, "The Little Book" is a breathtaking love story that spans generations, ranging from fin de siecle Vienna through the pivotal moments of the 20th century.
Annotation:
Wheeler Burden, a California rock star, inexplicably travels back in time to fin de siècle Vienna, where he becomes an enemy of his own grandfather, falls in love with his grandmother, and finds himself playing a major role in the history of Western civilization. He's not alone in his time-traveling: his father has also zapped back in time, and is keen on killing the infant Hitler. A wildly inventive, nostalgic, and big-hearted novel, THE LITTLE BOOK has the freewheeling and sincere charm of Winston Groom's FORREST GUMP or John Irving's THE WORLD ACCORDING TO GARP.
