In their first book, <I>Sean & David's Long Drive</I>, the two Aussies drove across their native land, with Condon recording the experience in a hip, irreverent riff that was both perceptive and downright hilarious. In <I>Sean & David's Drive Thru America</I>, they give the U.S. the same treatment. Starting with Sean's impersonation of a blind man on the flight from Australia to Montreal--just in case he got stuck with a boring seatmate (he didn't)--and ending with Sean's agreement to deliver a letter to Seattle for a mysterious blind man claiming to have sold his corneas, this automobile odyssey is packed full of the strange and the unexpected. As they travel from East Coast to West, Sean and David test out the perimeters of the American popular culture they ingested through imported television shows, films, and music. Imagined encounters with beat poets, real encounters with Texas good ole boys, and a chronicle of the journey framed as a series of scenes in a movie script all contribute to this loopy, entertaining account of how two Australian guys spent their summer vacation. 728427 1 3 1998 Drive Thru America total:32|5:4|4:11|3:11|2:3|1:3| 32 106 44 3 5 0 false false Mon Jan 01 00:00:00 -0800 2001 Tue Feb 26 13:17:59 -0800 2008 Tue Feb 26 13:17:59 -0800 2008 3 0 false false Wed Mar 10 00:00:00 -0800 2004 Fri Jul 25 15:41:31 -0700 2008 Fri Jul 25 15:42:09 -0700 2008 2 0 false false Thu Apr 24 15:30:56 -0700 2008 Thu Apr 24 17:20:13 -0700 2008 0 0 false false Sun Sep 27 15:31:08 -0700 2009 Sun Sep 27 15:31:08 -0700 2009 3 0 false false Sun Sep 27 01:25:51 -0700 2009 Sun Sep 27 01:25:51 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Sat Sep 19 04:23:42 -0700 2009 Sat Sep 19 04:23:42 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Sat Jul 18 15:55:57 -0700 2009 Sat Jul 18 15:55:57 -0700 2009 4 0 false false Sun Jul 05 21:34:10 -0700 2009 Fri Jul 03 18:41:05 -0700 2009 Sun Jul 05 21:34:10 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Thu Jul 02 13:46:16 -0700 2009 Thu Jul 02 13:46:16 -0700 2009 4 0 false false Tue Jun 30 21:21:55 -0700 2009 Tue Jun 30 21:21:55 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Wed Jun 17 08:19:06 -0700 2009 Wed Jun 17 08:19:06 -0700 2009 1 0 false false Tue Jun 09 07:43:44 -0700 2009 Tue Jun 09 07:43:44 -0700 2009 3 0 false false Sat Jun 06 07:41:36 -0700 2009 Sat Jun 06 07:41:36 -0700 2009 4 0 false false Sun May 10 12:21:29 -0700 2009 Sun May 10 12:21:29 -0700 2009 4 0 false false Mon Apr 06 05:58:56 -0700 2009 Mon Apr 06 05:58:56 -0700 2009 3 0 false false Sat Mar 14 16:30:11 -0700 2009 Sat Mar 14 16:30:11 -0700 2009 4 0 false false Tue Mar 10 05:01:53 -0700 2009 Tue Mar 10 05:01:53 -0700 2009 2 0 false false Tue Dec 02 14:49:47 -0800 2008 Tue Dec 02 14:49:50 -0800 2008 0 0 false false Thu Nov 20 17:33:01 -0800 2008 Thu Nov 20 17:33:01 -0800 2008 0 0 false false Mon Oct 06 10:45:31 -0700 2008 Mon Oct 06 10:45:31 -0700 2008 http://www.goodreads.com/book_link/follow/8?book_id=742267
