First-time author Stephen Leon White has created a foreign landscape with its own set of rules that nevertheless seems as familiar as the streets we live on.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA young man of twenty-one distracted by daydreams of love, Oliver Sandwich suddenly finds himself in a pickle as he tries to jam a \"ladder\" down his neighborhood mailbox instead of the \"letter\" his mother asked him to mail. Falling in atop a mountain of dead letters, Oliver loses his bearings as he encounters a place he never dreamed of -Letterland, a loony world where letters live full lives before being called upon to take their place in the words we write; a world where \"L\"s transform themselves to look like '50s and '60s movie and television characters who seem oddly real-yet are hopelessly behind the times.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn Letterland Oliver stumbles into Liberaltown, where he is taken under the wing of the mayor, an L who is the spitting image of John Wayne.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhen Oliver meets the mayor's daughter, a teenager masquerading as Mr. Ed, the talking horse, she reveals that she can compute herself to look like anyone she chooses-whereupon Oliver produces a picture of Lysander, his secret love.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHilarious and affectionate, White makes us feel at home in a world we never dreamed existed. By the end, smitten by this new place, we are ready to embrace the lunatic Ls living their lives as best they can-with their all too human laughter and laments. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Stephen Leon White\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1966373864\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781966373865\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Fawcett Publications\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/21\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 254\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.76lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.53d","brand":"Stephen Leon White","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48217610584319,"sku":"9781966373865","price":10.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_7f4265a0-7273-4339-96db-2f200b5f01b3.jpg?v=1771998299","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/a-lunatic-love-life-stephen-leon-white-9781966373865","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
