San Fernando

di Paul Neuhaus (Autore)

Paul Neuhaus, 2025

Spanning from the golden age of animation to the dawning of the 21st century, San Fernando is an intimate story of ambition, art, and the long shadows of personal history. It begins with Rollie Prader, a talented animator swept up in the promise and politics of the Walt Disney Studios in the 1940s. It continues with Jacob Blockman, a sharp-witted teen navigating love, grief, and identity in suburban California during the 1980s. It culminates with Walton Krebs, a slick and self-destructive comic strip creator whose family ties mask deeper wounds. What begins as a chronicle of creative ambition and postwar America unfurls into something richer—a story of legacy, secrets, and the invisible threads connecting generations. As their paths intersect in unexpected ways, Rollie, Jacob, and Walton must each confront what it means to belong—whether to a family, a country, or an era that no longer exists. At once bitingly funny and deeply humane, San Fernando captures the quiet epic of ordinary lives shaped by extraordinary times. A sweeping yet intimate novel for readers who loved Kavalier & Clay, The Fortress of Solitude, or Once Upon a Time in Hollywood.
