Meet Michael Perry
What do the critics say?
“Perry writes about fixing his truck as if he was resurrecting it, but in fact, he may more accurately be said to have been resurrecting himself. The truck is transformed, certainly, but the multiplicity of changes that Perry goes through run deeper and likely will last longer. Recommend this one enthusiastically to fans of self--exploration books and truck-repair manuals--and all readers in between. Motorcycle maintenance for a new century.”- American Library Association
“A reminder, by a talent of the hinterlands, to celebrate small-town life and to treasure human relationships.” - Kirkus Reviews
“The deer-hunting, truck-loving Michael Perry has the soul of a poet.” - Chicago Tribune Books
“Swells with unadorned heroism. He’s the real thing .” - USA Today
“This is a quietly devastating book--intimate and disarming and lovely.” - Esquire
