Smacked Out and Loving you all the Time: The Odyssey of a Typewriter Girl

Meg Heggen
4.9/5 (28667 ratings)
Description:From the back cover:"When given an old 'vintage-style' type-writer [with] a silver carriage return, dirty ribbons and bass circular Bakelite keys, twelve-year old Lynette begins to dabble with the machine in a way that moves beyond the way a toddler imaginatively plays a piano. It's not long before she develops a particular talent for not only speed but also for accuracy as … fingers scurry like mice, often late into the night, across the keys – smacking and clattering the mechanics with hands and fingertips – as she sits encased in the glow of a single naked bulb, stopping only to reverse the direction of the spool, unjam conflicting keys or switch the 'red' ribbon to 'black'.As the Young Layoff Strathmore she dabbles in much; searching for words, meaning … and the promise of love … beyond the windows and doors of Wellington homes, and typewriter keys. Years on she finds herself pleaded to a brutal partnership, loving a gaolbird, and living abroad – somewhat estranged from two young children – across the Tasman, in Australia.Smacked Out is an odyssey of momentous proportions; a poignant amount of the choices we make and the powerful bonds that forever seemingly shape a woman's life and her heart struggles to stay intact."We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
