Synopsis "I'm No Irving"

This is a story of Irving Sigal, a unique and enigmatic person in every way. Filled with humor, sadness, and success. Irving would have been an Indiana farmer had not his mother filled out and sent in a college application for her genius son. His mother and sister convinced him to attend Indiana University, not far from where he and his brother farmed. Insufficiently challenged by academics alone, Irving continuously sought unconventional ways to test his limits as he also confronted uninvited challenges. Some funny, some sad, most extreme and all intriguing. No one knew the entirety of Irving's adventures or offbeat experiments. Neither his wife nor siblings had the whole picture. Steve, Irving's childhood friend and college roommate, was one of the few to witness Irving's peculiar and extraordinary habits. Steve, who struggles to overcome dyslexia, watches as Irving catapults to a Harvard PhD. Then to groundbreaking discoveries at the interface of molecular biology and biochemistry that lead to the first effective treatment of HIV/AIDS saving tens of thousands lives, changing the world. At age 35, just as Irving was hitting his stride, it is all taken away with his tragic death on Pan Am 103. An impactful, illuminating, and heartfelt story that will leave readers of all ages with much to contemplate.
