In the first installment of his para-biography, DeCarlo explores the foundational years of his identity, ancestral roots, and the formation of his worldview. He begins by examining the complex, culture-clash marriage of his parents—an impoverished Texas farm girl and a first-generation New York Italian dentist. Set against the backdrop of the 1950s and 1960s, DeCarlo navigates grammar school before heading to Duke University during the volatile Vietnam War era. He candidly recounts the campus riots, political polarization, and the cultural temptations of drugs and alcohol that defined the decade. The volume culminates with an intimate, behind-the-scenes look at the grueling rigors of Medical School, finishing in 1969 as he steps into the world as a newly minted, novice physician.

About the Author
About Alan N. DeCarlo, M.D.
Alan N. DeCarlo, M.D., is a physician and writer whose work is shaped by decades of medical experience and a lifelong habit of close observation. In Wednesday’s Child, he brings those instincts together to write not simply about events, but about what those events reveal about people, systems, and the uneasy realities of living, aging, and remembering. His background in medicine gives the trilogy its clinical precision, but his voice is anything but detached. DeCarlo writes with irony, intensity, skepticism, and emotional honesty. He openly describes the books as realistic, inductively reasoned, intentionally irreverent, and purposefully iconoclastic, inviting readers to question inherited beliefs and examine life without comforting illusions.
At the heart of his writing is a desire to preserve what memory can still hold and to say plainly what many people avoid saying at all. His work is for readers willing to sit with complexity, contradiction, and the uncomfortable truth that a single life can be both deeply personal and universally recognizable.
