Riassunto

A kaleidoscopic, epic novel about a lovestruck radio operator who discovers a secret society…

In 1975, a black child is mysteriously born to white parents.

His name is Radar Radmanovic.

Radar grows up in suburban New Jersey, but his story rapidly becomes entangled with terrible events in Yugoslavia, Norway, Cambodia, the Congo, and beyond. Falling in with a secretive group of puppeteers and scientists who stage experimental performances in war zones around the world, he is soon forced to confront the true nature of his identity.
