Shadows and Dreams

A semi-historical novel of the forties fifties and sixties narrated by the main character one John J. Rosko the 1st. who seeing life in this world as not much to crow about trades it in for life in the next. Not finding his newly acquired surroundings anymore exhilarating than the previously mentioned affliction he then bargains back for the former on the mistaken assumption that constant movement implies progress. In between his frenetic boomeranging he finds if not a multitude of sins at least an interesting compilation of amusing transgressions. Discovering belatedly that neither was ever going to be to his liking he lays down the sword and falls on his shield. Not exactly a comedy but comedic.
