Turning his back on the British legal profession and the
requirement to account for every six minutes of his time, Geoff
Steward and his lucky five-inch articulated Doctor Who figure go
off-grid and on the road across America. From New York to Alaska,
he tries to fend for himself without his trusty PA and life
support, the unflappable Charmaine, for whom contentment lies in
Jesus Christ and custard creams. With his blend of waspish wit and
mischievous charm, Steward seeks out normal Americans, such as Joe
le Taxi, the former NYPD officer who was one of the first on the
scene at the Twin Towers and now runs an extortionate executive
taxi service; Pam and Bob, a paranoid psychiatrist and a failed
actor who once saw the back of Meryl Streep's head; Taylor the
Alaskan bushwhacker who was raised by wolves and revels in their
scat; Jeb the Yosemite inn-sitter who lives his life at the pace of
a Ford Model T; Kacey Musgraves, the controversial country music
star staying at the farm in Tennessee; and Sheriff Duke of Calhoun
County, South Carolina, who reintroduces Steward to the long (and
armed) arm of the law.For anyone at a crossroads, contemplating a
temporary or permanent career break, this affectionate travel romp
is essential reading. Journeying coast-to-coast across the US with
Steward might just remind you that, despite the post-Trump
hysteria, there are many normal and decent Americans out there.
