Man on the Floor! Kindle Edition

Dan Coberly's debut novel is original, funny, entertaining, deep, and sad all at the same time. A wonderfully unique, page-turning mix of satire, serious social commentary, and witness to signs of his times, it's a must-read story that must be told. He'll grab your attention with vivid descriptions of life as a small boy of a military father and a French war bride trying to make sense out of a brave new world in post-WWII Munich and Verdun. He walks us through youthful enthusiasm while growing up in a Cold War military subculture, wide-eyed culture shock encountering race relations, and anti-Vietnam war sentiments that became a scathing indictment of "democraZy". Somehow, he survives man's inhumanity to man during otherwise humorous careers as a soldier and a government bureaucrat around the world, shaping maturity and wisdom along the way. Read more
