"Einstein's
Road Trip
Winslow to Thibodaux and Beyond"
An artist's fragile grasp on reality
becomes more tenuous after he meets an illusory Albert Einstein on Arizona's high desert plateau.
"I have a theory. I believe the author's long sojourn
on Maui has enabled him to escape the realities of life most of us face each day and thus write a startling and compelling
novel where reality is at best, ethereal. Astonishingly vibrant."
In the winter of nineteen ninety Maui artist, Gilles Barker,
his Hopi Indian cab driver, and a visionary Albert Einstein are chased across the deserts and bayous from Winslow, Arizona
to New Orleans' French Quarter in their Quixotic search for lost love and a satchel's mysterious contents.
"Gilles Barker belongs on that list of eccentric and unusual
characters along with the likes of Vonnegut's Kilgore Trout - but he's not alone in this marvelously offbeat trip through
space and time."
