Synopsis
J. J. Smith makes his living by searching out bizarre and extreme events for THE BOOK OF RECORDS, but the well is running dry, and if he is to keep his job he must come up with some new record-breaking oddities. When he hears that someone in Nebraska is eating an airplane, a little bit every day, he investigates, and in a tiny Nebraska town he finds Wally Chubb, who is consuming the 747 to prove his love for his girlfriend, Willa. Then J. J. falls for Willa, too. This wacky novel about romance and obsession is a comical delight.

Publisher's Note
J. J. Smith loves his job as Keeper of the Records for The Book of Records, but even he is not prepared for the ultimate record breaker--a man who is ingesting a 747 piece by piece to prove his love for a woman. A first novel. Simultaneous.

Industry reviews
"A clever, quirky, comic first novel about love and obsession....Wonderfully wacky, wise, charming, and romantic satire...."
Jonas 

"Like all pastorals, THE MAN WHO ATE THE 747 works by excluding so much of human experience, and yet it remains admirable because those omissions become, acceptably, a stylized schmaltzy image of something golden in the mundane."
Times Literary Supplement - Roz Kaveney (11/17/2000)

Synopsis:  John Smith is a Keeper of Records for the world-famous Book of Records. For the past 14 years, he has traveled the globe to verify records in innumerable categories, making his work the family that he does not have.

When he gets news of a man in Superior, NE, who is eating a 747, he drives there to check it out. Although gluttony records have been banned by the Committee of The Book, Smith finds that the plane is being eaten for love and asks for special dispensation from the Committee. Wally Chubb's eating of the 747 is actually his latest and greatest attempt to get Willa Wyatt to fall in love with him.

I purchased this audiobook from a store going out of business. It is in very good to excellent condition. There may be some sticker residue on the front of the storage box. Comes from a smoke-free environment.
