Adam Mercer had a mental illness.  This was important to this novel because during the 1960's, people with mental illnesses were not understood. 

In this book, A Corner of the Universe, Adam Mercer loved the show I Love Lucy.

Adam Mercer is very affraid of ferris wheels.  This leads to a very important event in the book.
