Sean, who wants to be a glass blower, finds a bottle that turns out to be the crashed spaceship of an intergalactic junkman. Sean's friend Olivia attempts to repair the space vehicle, and the junkman--a disreputable sort--tries to evade an unhappy alien customer. Sean's strong interest in art adds an unusual touch to this fast and funny science fiction story.
