Kurzbeschreibung

A book about a 4000 mile cross country bicycle tour through America ? well, what?s so new and thrilling about that? You should think. But: The personal diaries of two young European (Viennese) lads have been blended into an astounding alloy of reading pleasure. Their funny, sometimes critical accounts have not much in common with normal travel logs. Admittedly, if you like travel books, you?ll like this one anyway. Also, if you are a bike freak or a general fan of atmospheric literature about back-country America. Still this book is also well fitted for a broader audience, as the two authors seem to have managed travelling on the edge of the genuine American soul as it presents itself on the turn of the Millennium. The authors didn?t spend their nights at isolating motels or somewhere out there in tents. The people they met all the way from the East to the West coast let them savour their hospitality and thereby offered them insights into their lives and doings. The well blended mixture of quite ordinary ingredients transforms the manuscript into a reading experience that makes every cold infectious, every flat tire painful and the finely tuned slapstick humour thoroughly funny for the reader.
