THE LITTLE BOOK Hardback - 2008
de Edwards, Selden
An irresistible triumph of the imagination more than thirtyyears in the making, The Little Book is a breathtaking love storythat spans generations, ranging from fin de siècle Viennathrough the pivotal moments of the twentieth century.
The Little Book is the extraordinary tale of Wheeler Burden, California-exiledheir of the famous Boston banking Burdens, philosopher, student of history,legend's son, rock idol, writer, lover of women, recluse, half-Jew, and Harvardbaseball hero. In 1988 he is forty-seven, living in San Francisco. Suddenly heis still his modern self wandering in a city and time he knows mysteriouslywell: fin de siècle Vienna. It is 1897, precisely ninety-one years before his lastmemory and a half-century before his birth.
It's not long before Wheeler has acquired appropriate clothes, money, lodging,a group of young Viennese intellectuals as friends, a mentor in SigmundFreud, a bitter rival, a powerful crush on a luminous young American woman,a passing acquaintance with local celebrity Mark Twain, and an incredible andsurprising insight into the dashing young war-hero father he never knew.
But the truth at the center of Wheeler's dislocation in time remains a stubbornmystery that will take months of exploration and a lifetime of memoriesto unravel and that will, in the end, reveal nothing short of the eccentric Burdenfamily's unrivaled impact on the very course of the coming century. TheLittle Book is a masterpiece of unequaled storytelling that announces SeldenEdwards as one of the most dazzling, original, entertaining, and inventivenovelists of our time.
