Kirkus Review: Clinical psychologist Goldberg's first novel
explores the twin concepts of outsider status and insanity, with a
mathematical twist ... By turns comic and tragic, readers must form
their own opinions about what truly constitutes sanity in an insane
world. Peter, a habitual peep show user, dreads dirt, fears
contamination, and lives each day in strange fantasy and total
emotional isolation. By strictly adhering to self-imposed
mathematic rituals, he maintains his own orderly - albeit lonely -
universe in a chaotic world. One day, he meets John, a lifelong
mental patient. From their respective disturbances, they form an
odd, but deep, friendship. A literary novel, Peter Squared is both
tragic and funny. Through vivid characters and absurd situations,
Peter Squared addresses such controversial questions as: Are
neglected and abused children better off protected or left alone?
Is smoking really bad for you? Does fellatio violate kosher dietary
laws?
