Izzy Himmelfarb is as innocent as Richard Kimble, and darn near as naïve. Like Dr Kimble, he's a 60s guy, though a bit younger and more in tune with the counterculture, and overeducated. I wanted to see if someone from a time I personally remembered could make it as a time traveller. I'm happy to say he weathered the journey pretty well, at least I think so. But you be the judge: I'm just the author. You, more importantly, are the reader. Hop aboard the ferret express and see what it takes to get from Joliet to Woodstock.

Autorenporträt
Every November, contributors to the h2g2.com Post get together and write serial stories, a chapter a day. One year, we all composed a tale together, which became 30 Hours in Hooverville. Last year, we took on the theme of 'Holes in History', resulting in a lot of fun and my book Coming of Age in Brookville. This year, I told them, the theme would be 'Twice-Told Tales': grab something from the folklore index. Retell your favourite fairy tale with a new twist. Do what the scriptwriters call a 'haircut' on an old theme. The results were highly satisfying, although one avid reader remarked that some of the 'haircuts' were more like decapitations. My personal effort involves a 'haircut' of The Fugitive, a 1960s tv series that was itself a 'haircut' of Les Miserables. Ultimately, though, it's the old motif of the falsely accused hero on a dangerous mission.
