The Revolving Boy Author:Gertrude Friedberg It is a very small-scale story of a boy whose unique talent - an unfailing sense of direction - brings about a major advance in human history. The writing is excellent - all climaxes are given full value and there is an over-all feeling of warmth and empathy.
If you are a sci-fi fan you will enjoy yhis book. As a young boy Derv Nagy was marked as different. His sense of directionand his compulsion to turn to feel right and his leaning set him apart. Only his parents knew why and they weren't telling.
