Eleanor Davis's bike tour from Tucson, Arizona to Athens, Georgia is a quest of epic proportions -- not just geographically, which it surely is, but inwardly as well. While facing off formidable headwinds, drivers with reckless abandon, and screaming knee pain, the author confronts an even greater challenge -- her own mind. Life on two wheels teaches her many lessons, and she narrates them with keen observation and self-deprecating candor through a series of funny, touching vignettes. Companionship from fellow travelers and the generosity of colorful strangers propel Davis along the open road. A tale of serendipitous encounters, surprising friendship, perseverance, and tenderness, Eleanor Davis's You and a Bike and a Road reveals the power, and truth, of the most efficient mode of human transportation -- a bicycle.
Industry Reviews
You and a Bike and a Road is a lovely, slow book about going on a journey -- not an epic, world-dominating circumnavigation, but something quieter and more intimate.--Jon Day "The New York Review of Books"
You and a Bike and a Road is Eleanor Davis' personal exploration of roadside America, US immigration politics, and the autobiographical comics form.--Chris Gavaler "PopMatters"
[You and a Bike and a Road is] done in beautiful and simple graphite illustration, and captures day-to-day moments touching on border patrol and racism, mental and physical health, and the kindness of strangers.--Colleen Kolba "Entropy"
Everything Davis put out in this decade demands attention, but her personal connection to You and a Bike and a Road sets it apart.--Oliver Sava "The A.V. Club"
Full of hope and anxiety and the desire to grind the badness out of your own head by brute force, You and a Bike and a Road is a testament to the human spirit.--Alex Hoffman "Solrad"
