The Book Review
WHEN LIVES ENTANGLE, WEBS WILL WEAVE...
Time:
September, 1997.
Place:
Lebanon, Kansas-quite literally, as marked by a monument, the very
middle
of middle America.
A teacher. A soldier. An immigrant. A joker. A loner. A chancer. A carer.
A mosaic of seven regular townsfolk are going about their days, blissfully unaware their lives are about to interweave, interchange and interact; entangling into such a messy web that, together - and unbeknownst to them - their lives end up changing the face of America forevermore.
In the mold of movies such as
Traffic, Magnolia & The Usual Suspects, In the Middle of Middle America
follows multiple characters and allows the reader to become a fly on the wall to observe these seven lives entangling into such a mess that they ultimately lead the reader into a head-spinning twist.
