Monahan for its next film adaptation project. Set against the vibrant backdrop of the summer of 1989—a time defined by Batman ruling the box office and Milli Vanilli dominating the airwaves—the novel explores the fervent dreams and harsh realities of youth through the eyes of young Sebastian Riggs.
Sebastian harbors the tenacious aspiration of acquiring a vintage stunt radio-controlled airplane named the Dreamin’. Beyond a mere object, the Dreamin’ represents respect, self-affirmation, and a path to healing strained familial ties. It’s a story of a small town with deep-seated secrets and a young boy with high hopes, braving hurdles with a heart full of dreams.
Readers and critics alike have praised “Dreamin’ in ’89” for its potent blend of nostalgia and nuanced depiction of adolescence. Monahan’s vivid narrative and richly developed characters offer a fresh and candid take on the timeless themes of growing up, forging friendships, and nurturing dreams amid adversities. The BookLife Prize commends the work for “vividly conjuring the spirit of the late 1980s” and “humanizing bullies,” showcasing a young boy’s redemptive journey through challenges and the ultimate realization of what truly matters in life.
Author T.G. Monahan, a former Judge Advocate officer and a veteran of the Iraq War brings to the tale an authentic depiction of struggle and triumph, crafting a narrative that is at once universal and deeply personal. Drawing from an enriched perspective, Monahan creates a world filled with characters who resonate with readers, evoking a sense of familiarity and heartfelt connection.
