Description
A small-town newspaper columnist with old-fashioned viewsof the modern world. A World War II veteran grappling with his emotional and physical scars. A second-rate actor plunged into sudden stardom and a whirlwind press junket. four friends travellingto the moon in a rocket ship built in the backyard. These are just some of the stories that Tom Hanks captures in his first work of fiction : a collection of shorts that explore - with great affection, humour and insight - the human condition in all its foibles. The stories are linked by one thing : in each of them, a typewriter plays part, sometimes minor, sometimes central.
