    Set over the last half of the twentieth century, Onward Toward What We re Going Toward is the epic story of the decline and fall of an American family.Postwar newlyweds Chic and Diane Waldbeeser are determined to carve out a life for themselves and their son, Lomax, in Middleville, Illinois. But when ten-year-old Loxax dies, Chic and Diane take refuge in religion, haiku poetry, doll collecting, food and bowling as they try to make sense of their overwhelming grief and guilt.Meanwhile Chic s older brother, Buddy, struggles to make a life with his exotic, na ve wife Lijy who is hiding a devastating secret of her own while attempting to introduce the residents of Middleville to vegetarianism and Ayurveda. (An unusual endeavour in mid-century Middle America.)Onward Toward What We re Going Toward is a bittersweet paean to failed lives and missed opportunities, and a deeply heartfelt and gloriously funny dissection of the American Dream.
