But what is a road trip novel? What makes one book a road tale and another a vacation story? Dictionary.com says a road trip is “a journey via automobile, sometimes unplanned or impromptu.” Well…yes and no. A road trip novel does not always need to be in a car (som

An insipid voice message or an incongruent emergence from the “other” world may disrupt our whole thinking system.
