Summary:
"
All
These
Wonders
features voices both familiar and new. Storytellers include Louis C.K., Tig Notaro, John Turturro, and Meg Wolitzer, as well as a hip hop "one hit wonder," an astronomer gazing at the surface of Pluto for the first time, and a young female spy risking everything as part of Churchill's "secret army" during World War II. They share their ventures into uncharted territory--and how their lives were changed forever by what they found there.
These
true
stories
have been carefully selected and adapted to the page by the creative minds at The
Moth
, and will encompass the very best of the 17,000+
stories
performed in live
Moth
shows around the world."--From publisher.
