Synopsis

"On June 21, 2002, all the televisions in the world stopped. Now, many years later, a spectrum of distinctly disparate narrators, all accomplished storytellers, are compelled to pass on to posterity their evocative recollections of the inexplicable loss of television." "Beautiful green-eyed Maria, a poor Brazilian native, tells her enchanting tale of coming to America with her husband in search of a singularly gifted retired astronaut who may hold the clue to the puzzle; a reporter's cool voice reveals the astronaut's extraordinary vision as the Sahara Desert is seen from outer space. The whole business will come to a startling climax in - of all places - Madison Square Garden. And it is quite fitting that small schoolchildren have played a major role in unraveling the mystery."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc. All Rights Reserved
