Lost Continent Audiobook
SYNOPSIS
In an ageing Chevrolet Chevette, he drove nearly 14,000 miles through 38 states to compile this hilarious and perceptive state-of-the-nation report on small-town America.
From the Deep South to the Wild West, from Elvis'' birthplace through to Custer''s Last Stand, Bryson
visits places he re-named Dullard, Coma, and Doldrum (so the residents don''t sue or come after him with baseball bats). But his hopes of finding the American dream end in a nightmare of greed, ignorance, and pollution. This is a wickedly witty and savagely funny assessment of a country lost to itself, and to him.
Travel through small-town America with Kerry Shale''s popular BBC Radio 4 reading of Bill Bryson''s comic travelogue.
