Publisher's Synopsis
He wants to find himself. They want to lose him. From Ben Hatch, the best-selling author of The Lawnmower Celebrity, a novel about travel and feeling green. Kerouac said that life is a dream. But International Gooseberry Kit Farley's life is definitely turning into a nightmare, as he drives across the States with his supposed 'best mate' Carlos and his neurotic, penny-pinching, Prozac-popping girlfriend, Dominique. Kit wants to explore the dusty highways, meet and sleep with beautiful women of all nations and discover that there's more to America than Arby's; Carlos and Dominique are determined to argue the merit of every dollar spent and go to bed early to read. In their tent. On the cheapest campsite they can find. Anyone who's been travelling, or thought about getting away from it all, will be laughing out loud one minute and wincing with horrified recognition the next . . .
