What Drives Men - 9781733118507

A Gulf War vet battling PTSD is tricked into chauffeuring millionaire country music legend Billy Bud Wilcox from Newark to Colorado. Everything goes wrong. Tepper expertly skewers a vast collection of characters on a wildly entertaining road trip from hell. Kafka meets Lost in America in Susan Tepper's quirky, irreverent, and incisive novel What Drives Men. Part nightmare, part slapstick comedy, with a generous dose of social critique, here everything slithers out of the flummoxed protagonist's control. Beate Sigriddaughter, author of Xanthippe and Her Friends Susan Tepper's What Drives Men is a picaresque masterpiece. Tepper's cast of characters: a Gulf War vet, an octogenarian C&W singer, and three twenty-three-year-olds, are as diverse a group of nutcases you?ll come across this side of The Master and Margarita. Tepper spins a marvelous tale, sure to tickle the funny bone. ? James Claffey, author of Blood A Cold Blue
