Book excerpt: Who lives in Andoshen, Pa.' Wards of Darryl Ponicsan's memory and imagination: Shakey the Cop, Thunder Przwalski, the Reader at the cigar factory, Duncan, who once gave Willie Mosconi a good game, Kayo Mackey, said to be the only boy ever to hurt Gene Tunney in the ring, Stump Bonomo, Champion of the Tri-County Finger League, and various others who managed a coal town kind of immortality. The poverty of Andoshen is as rich as that of Tortilla Flat or Cannery Row. It is a unique additon to the literary map of the world.
