The Enchanted Type-Writer

Classics for Your Collection: goo.gl/U80LCr --------- The Enchanted Type-Writer A spirit from Hades (not Hell. Hades) possessed our narrator's typewriter and told him how things just basically the same in the afterlife. People still went to work, there was an election and so on and so forth. The favorite part is when Baron Munchausen told the story that he was Adam, Noah, Jonah and Bill Shakespeare before he was born as Munchausen. The story is that virtually every author, artist and world leader ends up in the torment of Hades - where they essentially get to carry on - is so tongue in cheek it's hard not to laugh. Bangs must have had a load of fun writing this and must have had to end it just to bring what could have been an endless set of stories. Plot Summary: - The author finds and restores a dusty old typewriter. - It becomes haunted by a couple of the spirits of those Shades who have passed over the River Sticks. - After all, the news must be published, even down there. - An added attraction is the fact that the author can converse with the typist. The author by the spoken word and the spirit by the keyboard. The Enchanted Type-Writer is one of the books in the "Hades" series. The other two books are A Houseboat on the Styx and Pursuit of the Houseboat. The Enchanted Type-Writer stands alone; you do not have to have read the first two novels to enjoy it fully. The novels are written in Bangsian fantasy, a fantasy genre which concerns the use of famous literary or historical individuals and their interactions in the afterlife. It is named for John Kendrick Bangs who often wrote it. It's eccentric humor will have you chuckling all through. A good classic.
