Written by the author of travel book "One Hot Summer in St Petersburg", this is a travelogue of his journey from London to Sicily in his Ford car.
Uproariously funny and staggeringly innovative travelogue of one man and his car, from London via St Tropez and Florence to Sicily, starting on a day when modern European civilisation seemed doomed. Having sworn off his drug-taking. Duncan Fallowell sets off on the day it is announced that disaster beckons for Western Europe. Peering eagerly through his sunglasses and with a wickedly accurate ear for the idiosyncrasies of the people he meets, he writes it all down before it is too late: from Banana man in Florence, his encounter with Mick Jagger in Paris to a ghastly revelation by a black lake in Sicily, pressing just about any other cultural and erotic button in between.
