Wonderless (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781662967542)

What if the kids dropped out of school and instead of falling through the cracks they ascended through them?

Self-taught science prodigy, Little Man doesn't mean to start a movement. He just walks out of school - out of the noise, the pressure, the hollow promises - and keeps going. But something strange happens when he leaves: gravity loosens. The world tilts. And Little Man begins to rise.

Others notice. First Seed and Moses, then Sheila, Hellcat, and dozens more - drifters, runaways, the overlooked and the overburdened - all drawn toward the same destiny. As they move west across America, the group grows into a kind of floating tribe, no longer subscribing to the laws of convention, but lifted on the currents of dark energy.

Told in Little Man's raw, searching voice, Wonderless follows a generation that refuses to stay grounded in a world that keeps failing them. Their journey becomes part road novel, part physics-defying myth, part coming-of-age story for an era where the old rules - social, emotional, gravitational - no longer hold.

A surreal, heartfelt, and fiercely original novel, Wonderless captures the moment when American greed and anxiety collapses in on itself- and something new emerges.

The question is, will anyone will be around to see it?
