An American Odyssey: Stories and Poetry – Vagabond’s Life by Michael N Felix
Requirements: .ePUB reader, 1.40mb Retail
Overview: Live your own life. Always, always work at things that excite you. From the snow-blinded highways of Minnesota to the razor-wire hills of Hollywood, An American Odyssey is a 186-page deep dive into the restless American soul. Michael N Felix delivers a raw, rhythmic account of a life spent on the highways of the North American continent chasing the unfaithful angels and finding truth in the dust.
This collection spans the continent:
The North: From the Minnesota/ Canadian border to a red smear of ecstasy in Alaska.
The South: An airliner engine, smoking and snapping and popping like pebbles in a hubcap, to Fly Fishing for Bonefish across the Caribbean
The West: St. Marie. Racing toward the setting sun on US #40, through the ancient Devil Mountains, to experiencing the “Skid Row” heart of LA.
The Blues: The Road never ends… A front-row seat to the “robo-cops” and political theatre of the Republican Convention in St. Paul Minnesota.
Blending the unapologetic grit of Bukowski with the wandering spirit of Kerouac, Felix captures the moments we usually ignore: the smell of a dog’s rank breath in a speeding car, the “ice roses” on a frozen lake, and the desperate tracings of a life that refuses to curl up like a dry leaf.
It is a book about leaving, arriving, and the realisation that there aren’t enough tears in the world to settle the dust on all of our roads.
