Více o knize
Set against the backdrop of May 24, 1962, the narrative intertwines the lives of diverse characters, including a convicted killer, a novelist, and a conflicted priest, all while astronaut Scott Carpenter orbits Earth. Central to the story is Gregory Noonan, a fifth-grader fascinated by space, whose fate becomes unexpectedly connected to Carpenter’s mission. As Gregory escapes school to witness the climax of the flight at Grand Central Terminal, the novel explores themes of aspiration, connection, and the impact of momentous events on ordinary lives.
