But just as much, he deserves celebration for being a valuable friend and a major contributor to world literature.This collection includes a Tom Kennedy story, an essay, and a translation; a joint memoir of a trip to Prague by Tom and Line-Maria Lång; selections from interviews given by Tom; memories of Tom from friends in the United States and other countries; contributions from Danish friends (two in Danish and English versions); reviews of several of Tom's novels; and an extensive bibliography of works by and about Tom.
