In a small town in Californias San Joaquin Valley, 14-year-old Homer Macauley sets out to become the best and fastest bicycle telegraph messenger anyone has ever seen . His older brother has gone to war, leaving Homer to look after his widowed mother, older sister and 4-year-old brother, Ulysses. So as spring turned to summer, 1942, Homer Macauley delivered a message of love, hope, pain... and death... to the good people of Ithaca. And Homer Macauley will grapple with the one message that will change him forever - from a boy to a man. Based on Pulitzer Prize-winning author William Saroyans 1943 novel, The Human Comedy, Ithaca is a classic wartime story from the home front.
