Woody Allen walked Elihu Blotnick to school, for $1 a week, once upon a time. The story is true. Later, Blotnick spent time in jail for his briefly banned narrative, Confessions of a Plastic Man”. These stories and nine others, called "fascinating and frightening" by the Pacific Historian, when they first appeared in book form under the same title in 1981, belong in the category of short story journalism and narrative non-fiction”; these are seminal stories, each resonant with a new character voice: from the beginning of electronic games, during a surge of alien claims on the U.S., at the advent of credit cards, and when fountain pens, the flag, and Woody Allen were fashionable.
