"John Sayles has written his first short story collection in twenty-five years. The keynote story - "Dillinger in Hollywood" - is populated by leftovers from the golden age of Hollywood who live in nursing home catering for "below-the-line" talent - dancers, stunt doubles, horse wranglers, stand-ins, studio drivers - who wait for death and dementia, playing cards, breaking hips, busting ribs, and telling tall tales of days gone by."--BOOK JACKET.
