Narrated by a nameless 17 year old girl this tells of her meandering road trip across contemporary America with Gunther, a much older man. An excellent portrayal of a teenager in love and intriguing; we are not told how or why the trip began and the ending is ambiguous. There are some brilliant descriptions of some really quirky characters who they meet en route. A gripping and poignant debut coming of age novel, this would make a great film!
