Based on Some Adventures of the Author
In the Summer of '78...
I really do wonder how I let Leon talk me into doing this kind of nonsense.
-- C'mon, Vinny. It'll be fun, he said.
Right, that I'm not so sure about. But here I am, kneeling in the shadow of a concrete snowshed, waiting for an eastbound freight we're 'catching'...
Spanning two different years, three seasons, and five states in North America, this coming-of-age road adventure follows young Vinny, as his mother urges him to discover the world beyond his home town.
How much does he love his mother? And will he heed her advice?
