Man on the Floor

By Daniel L. Coberly

Man on the Floor is an original, funny, entertaining, deep, and sad all at the same time. A wonderfully unique, page-turning mix of satire, serious social commentary, and witness to signs of his times, it's a must-read story that must be told. He'll grab your attention with vivid descriptions of life as a small boy of a military father and a French war bride trying to make sense out of a brave new world in post-WWII Munich and Verdun. He walks us through youthful enthusiasm while growing up in a Cold War military subculture, wide-eyed culture shock encountering race relations, and anti-Vietnam war sentiments that became a scathing indictment of "democrazy". Somehow, he survives man's inhumanity to man during otherwise humorous careers as a soldier and a government bureaucrat around the world, shaping maturity and wisdom along the way. If you were in the military this is a must for you. If not, it will open your eyes to many of the things that go on behind the scenes.
