Windsor, ON's renowned poet and storyteller returns with a profoundly personal poetic memoir of a foundational time in North America. Gervais returns us to an era defined hitchhiking, psychedelic music, and the politics of Vietnam. The era of the unbridled open road, the freedom of movement across a land and place we had yet to come to terms with. An ecological text of people and lives and uniquely Canadian places this is exploration of self personified. Saturated with the vibrancy of life and detail, Gervais bring us along with him, viewing the world though roll-up car windows, finding its mood in late night AM radio, and finds its community in the superstitions, loves, and longings of people Gervais discovers along the way.
