What is Man Alive!: A Novel about?
A warm, funny, and profoundly original novel about a family dealing with disaster, from a rising literary star. All it takes is a quarter to change pediatric psychiatrist Dr. Owen Lerners life. When the coin hes feeding into a parking meter is struck by lightning, Lerner survives, except that now all he wants to do is barbecue. What will happen to his patients, who rely on him to make sense of their world? More important, what will happen to his family? The bolt of lightning that lifts Lerner into the air sends the entire Lerner clan into free fall. Mary Kay Zuravleff depicts family-on-family pain with generosity and devastating humor as she explores how much we are each allowed to change within a familyand without. Man Alive! captures Owen and Toni Lerner and their nearly grown children so vividly youll be looking over your shoulder to make sure the author hasnt been watching your own family in action.
