"Big, beautiful, ambitious... His prose is addictive and enchanting" (Los Angeles Times)

"Chameleonic, ambitious, epic, fantastical, whimsical, thought-provoking, arcane, philosophical, exhaustive, and completely bonkers ― these are just some of the words that could be used to describe I Am Radar... Unquestionably one of the more adventurous entries into the literary landscape" (Boston Globe)

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.
