Travel changes us.
Often, a road trip teaches us something about ourselves we could learn in no other way.
In a good novel, your character learns something vital or grows wiser along the way.
John Steinbeck declares in Travels With Charley
that Americans descended from those who moved: those who left Europe,
those who were forced to leave Africa,
and those who came in search of a better life.
It makes sense that we would be travelers.
“Every American hungers to move,” he writes.
But most of us can’t just pack up and leave, so here are 4 Road Trips novels:
2 Not So Innocent Sagas
and 2 Victorian Egyptian thrillers
for those of you who want to avoid
the travails of travel
and just enjoy others' misadventures!

Music to enjoy my Road Trips Steampunk fantasies

I can't think of a lot of road trip novels or movies at hand, but one book that I liked that comes to mind is one that I think is called Sparrow Hill Road by Seanan Maguire and a movie from the 60s, a comedy, called Mad, Mad World.
ReplyDeleteJack Kerouac's ON THE ROAD is often mentioned with the better road books. MAD, MAD, WORLD was a great comedy that I thought no one but me remembered. :-) Apparently we have good taste, right?
