Desi Miller's life essentially begins in his early teen years after his family moves to a place so inconsequential that even the streets are nameless. Thus, he enters his self-defined "anonymous" period. He doesn't realize at the time, however, that this anonymity will not last long. Instead, Desi is quickly discovered and ultimately defined by the people around him. He then gets carried through the next ten years of his life on a whirlwind of circumstances that redefine him again and again in this captivating, post-modern story. The Theater of Real Life is a fascinating and life-changing read. Rather than depicting a formulaic genre fiction plot, it combines elements of romance, adventure, coming of age, and faith-based fiction in a manner that portrays for the reader how, as John Lennon once famously acknowledged, "Life is what happens to you when you are busy making other plans."
