Ithaca

Ithaca-Ithaca:2015:In a small city in California’s San Joaquin Valley, 14-year-old Homer Macauley is set to be the most effective and quickest bicycle telegraph messenger anybody has ever seen. His older brother has gone to conflict, leaving Homer to take care of his widowed mom, his older sister and his 4-year-old brother, Ulysses. And so it’s that as spring turns to summer season, 1942, Homer Macauley delivers messages of affection, hope, ache… and demise… to the great individuals of Ithaca. And Homer Macauley will grapple with one message that may change him eternally – from a boy into a person. Based mostly on Pulitzer Prize-winning creator William Saroyan’s 1943 novel, The Human Comedy, ITHACA is the quintessential wartime story of the Residence Entrance. It’s a coming-of-age story in regards to the exuberance of youth, the sweetness of life, the sting of demise and the modesty and sheer goodness that lives in each one among us.
