Welcome to the turbulent, emotion-packed sixties as you've never experienced them before. In author John Gardiner's groundbreaking and entertaining novel WHAAM a cast of multidimensional, vivid characters live through 1968, 1969 and 1970, journeying through history and deep into their own emotional lives, losses, and loves. Filled with references to popular culture, music, politics, film and more, WHAAM is a journey of the mind as well as the spirit. Because modern quantum physics insists that time does not exist, WHAAM is written in a fluid style, moving effortlessly from past to present. In a psychedelic writing style that can only be called pop prose, WHAAM sprinkles in the epic poetry of John Milton's classic Paradise Lost and the hard-edged language of quantum physics to craft a brand new kind of novel. History buffs will appreciate the many details of the period, while readers of groundbreaking fiction will love the thought-provoking story.
