It's the summer of 1949. The Cold War is heating up, TV is catching on, workers are striking, and campers are roughing it. In Ohio recent high-school grad Wilder S. Flint hits the road in pursuit of a mystery salesman who promises miracles by the dozen. Join the fun as Wilder takes some hilarious detours and discovers that life rarely goes as planned. It's the latest comic adventure from the author of the acclaimed Nick Twisp Youth in Revolt series. (Don't miss the movie from Weinstein Films.) Also includes a bonus short story about the ultimate recycling project.

Author Biography:

California writer C.D. Payne is the author of over a dozen humorous novels that have won a large cult following around the world. His best-known work, "Youth in Revolt: The Journals of Nick Twisp," was the basis of a 2010 film. From Weinstein Films, it starred Michael Cera, Steve Buscemi, Justin Long, Ray Liotta, and Jean Smart. Besides "Miracle in a Can" (just published), Payne's recent novels include "Revolt at the Beach" (book 8 in the Twisp series) and "Cheeky Swimsuits of 1957." The latter is the story of a young Yale grad (class of '57) who wants to be a filmmaker, but winds up in Ukiah running a small company that makes bathing suits for women with problem figures. Payne has made two trips to the Czech Republic and Slovakia where his novels are immensely popular. He is a native of Ohio (born in 1949 in Akron) and a graduate of Harvard College.
