Product ReviewsPropeller One-Way Night Coach : A Fable for all Ages by John Travolta (1997, Hardcover)

A fable based on living a dream

An eight-year-old-boy has for years dreamed of flying in an airplane. His name is Jeff and his mother told him that if he saved his small change, then they would take a trip together on a plane. His mother is a grade-B movie actress, and she decides to take a trip from their hometown of Newark, New Jersey to Hollywood. This is in the days before there were transcontinental jet airliners, so their trip will be by prop plane with several intermediate stops.
Travolta captures the joy of a boy living his dream while he mixes in his mother drinking, smoking and apparently cavorting with a man she met on the plane. There are also several lies put forward regarding the status of his mother’s acting career. It may be fiction, but this story has all the attributes of being based on real events.
