Summerland

Sobre el libro Summerland de Michael Chabon publicado por Collins al 2003:

´An epic fantasy for modern America.´ The Sunday Times Ethan, is a young hero on a quest though the strange world of American Faery. Since baseball is the favourite game of American fairies, or ´ferishers´ as the North American Fairy Folk call themselves, this is necessarily a story of baseball, too. Zeppelins, werefoxes, Indians and Indian mythology, sasquatches, wendigos, Alaska, the haunted, 161-year-old husk of George Armstrong Custer, and a boy who thinks he´s an android, also figure in the action. Along the way, the hero and heroine find themselves and each other; a band of Ferishers triumphs over their ancient enemy and finally find someone new to play baseball against; a widower´s heart will heal as his airship conquers the Northern sky; and a burned out Colombian slugger named Rodrigo Buendia will find redemption in discovering, with Ethan Feld and Jennifer T. Rideout, the true nature of heroism...
