About This Item
US: HARPERCOLLINS PUBLISHERS, 2011. Paperback. Very Good. A copy that has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged. Seven short stories from bestselling author Tony Parsons, based on his week as Writer in Residence at Heathrow airport. Here is Heathrow as it has never been seen before - a secret city populated by the 75 million travellers who pass through every year, a place where jo urneys and dreams end - and begin. From the brilliant twenty-something kids who control the skies up in Air Tr affic Control to the softly-spoken man who cares for the dogs, lions and sm uggled rattlesnakes at Heathrow's Animal Reception Centre, from the immigra tion officers who have heard it all before to the firemen who hone their sk ills by setting the green plane on fire, from the armed police who watch fo r terrorist attacks to the pilots who have touched the face of god - Heathr ow teems with life. In Departures, his first collection of short stories, Tony Parsons takes us deep inside the secret city.
