Eastbound to Life: Riding 350cc Two-Strokes from Nebraska to Boston in 1974 And Other Coming-of-Age Stories
Franzen and Ross were no strangers to long motorcycle rides. In 1973, they rode 350 Yamahas from Nebraska to California and back. Along the way, they stopped to see friends and family. But this 1974 ride to Boston was different. Now, on the verge of adulthood, they grappled with school, work, and their futures—especially young love. Their long ride to historic Boston was fueled by romance and expectations of a happy future. The descriptive text in this book contains a glimpse at mid-70’s America, but it also assesses numerous coming-of-age moments for young adults. Their ride to Boston became a rite of passage they have never forgotten.
Mr. Fleming's Suicide
John Fleming, unlucky in love and weary of endless and meaningless talk, has had enough. The story is built around a compilation of suicide notes he has written to his therapists, family members, his loving dog, and his "beloved"...the mysterious woman who is the object of his eternal affection. The suicide notes (and poems) describe his painful dissatisfaction with the mental health system, American pop culture, the scripted nature of modern life, and what he believes is the inability of anyone to simply stop talking and listen. Darkly comic, Fleming’s story holds up a mirror to contemporary American society.
Dangerous Encounters
The second installment in the Dangerous Encounters series features dozens of new and exciting real-life animal attacks. Mountain lions, alligators, killer sharks, stampeding elephants, and, of course, deadly cobras are just a few of the predators on the prowl in this gripping collection. Photo-realistic illustrations enhance the text throughout, and a new sidebar feature provides educational information on the animals.
