‘What a joy of a book, plunging you straight away into the very body, bosom and blood of America…makes me cry with pleasure’ Lucinda Lambton, The Oldie
Driving as slowly as safety permits, stopping frequently and often going backwards to have a second look at something glimpsed in passing, Reynolds talks to people on the streets, in bars and cafes, motels and gas stations. Beautifully observed, with candour, insight and humour, this is a vivid and timely portrait of small-town USA.
