Comprised of two separate collections of poetry, this compilation explores a world newly discovered in the imagination. The first is an exhilarating, freewheeling ride through landscapes and languages, filled with the enchantment and the melancholy of the open road--from tramping the Gobi desert and cycling in Irish drizzle to paddling in Tonga. The second section tells the tale of Molloy Gillies, a semi-detached 12-year-old who one night takes his bike from the shed and pedals off to escape evolution. As Molloy encounters dangers, kindness, and police cars, the poems reflect on what life and freedom are all about.
