About the Book

In the year 2020, at the height of the pandemic, an enigmatic woman gives birth to a boy named Edisson. Fourteen years later, the boy performs a magic show unlike any ever staged a magic show destined to be the most watched, most debated, most controversial in history. Sitting in the audience is a ruin of a man named Jeremy Vanderbilt Delaney, a onetime celebrity journalist with patrician blood and a privileged heritage. As the remarkable magic show develops, events transpire to reveal how religious fanaticism and the deep fracture in American culture shattered Jeremy Delaney's life and branded him with the name Jeremiah. Ultimately, Edisson's show demonstrates a liberating path for Jeremiah, and offers a healing lesson for a divided America.

About the Author :
Michael Carin trained as a political theorist at McGill University, where he also studied under the godfather of Canadian literature, Hugh MacLennan. He is the author of several novels including Five Hundred Keys, The Kremlin Papers and the work of alternate history Churchill At Munich. His non-fiction response to the Holocaust, The Future Jew, won him wide recognition as a provocative secular humanist. Mr. Carin lives in Montreal.

Review :
"Edisson and Jeremiah is a marvel of storytelling, blending the rigors of scientific research with creative brilliance. The narrative structure is fast-paced, weaving through a large cast of characters with faultless precision. Each character, including Houdini himself, springs vividly to life on the page, drawing readers deeply into their intertwined stories. This book is a masterful blend of depth and imagination, sure to leave a lasting impression. A one-off reading experience not to be missed!" --Susan Doherty, Author, Monday Rent Boy "Guaranteed, you have never read a book like Edisson and Jeremiah, and you've never met the unique cast of characters who populate these pages. But the novel's greatness lies in how an ingenious plot reveals truths about our troubled times. Michael Carin takes readers on a mesmerizing journey into the soul of contemporary America." --Tod Hoffman, author of Le Carré's Landscape What will be the ultimate salvation of humanity? Is it in the intervention of science or the wholly unexpected natural evolution of humanity itself? In his provocative new novel, Edisson and Jeremiah, Michael Carin raises many questions. Who is Edisson, and what is the secret behind his prodigious mental capacity? We are led through the twists and turns of this labyrinthine tale and discover the redemptive powers of empathy, tolerance, love and the ultimate triumph of good. It is a hopeful story at a time when hope is what we need. --S.L. Sparling, Author, The Glass Mountain
