Description

Product Description: This gritty novel explores the notion of the American Dream in the fifties, sixties and seventies. A series of linked stories tell of the quiet desperation, love, pain and dislocation of the people of Tinicum, a small town in Pennsylvania. "There's an aura of malaise hanging over this novel, as if David Lynch had re-made THELMA AND LOUISE." (Liverpool Echo) "A dreamscape of a novel which flashes up vastly different characters. Told with the power of a classic Harley."(Aberdeen Evening Express) "The book pulsates with the excitement of burning rubber. Novelist Karen Lee Street develops the story with skill and flair. (The Daily Telegraph) "Thorton Wilder meets David Lynch. Deadpan delivery adds to the slightly surreal effect." (Hyper Magazine)
