Synopsis

This book recounts the author's time living in Maryville, a composite city, whose charm and eccentricity draws all and sundry to its shores. The author takes on the persona of a foreign visitor who introduces readers to a series of encounters. While humorous in tone, the tales provide insights into the human nature of different characters and communities. The author also reflects on the history of some of the cities he visits and their significance within a wider context. This book is a testament to the power of storytelling and the revealing nature of human behavior.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Late in the afternoon of A pril 1, 1917, New Tort was shocked by a tragic oocorr Mioe, in which Sixtns Knox, among others, met with an untimely death. The elevated train, with at least one hundred and fifty passengers in eaoh car, was racing northward. My friend Six, one of the last of the great crowd to board the train, having secured no space whereon to stand, hung outside, holding on to a pole with his two hands, his thin legs swinging Hke a flag in the breeze, when, the motive has never been ascertained, a bloodthirsty Neapolitan shot him through the breast with a revolver. Was it a case of mistaken identity, or a vendetta act of the Bla Handt Nobody ever knew.
