spinning real life

Spinning Real Life is a satirical novel. A young idealist drops out of college to live the writer's life and to write the great American novel. He ends up at Texas Jake's Trailer Park and Harley Repair, in the woods along the Smith River in NW Calif. He starts to meet the kinds of characters who might be found in a combination trailer park and bike repair shop. He also becomes involved in a series of romances, all destined to fail due to his cluelessness about relationships, women and himself. He also finds himself in the middle of a bizarre environmental war that has kamikaze logging activists and a government war with the forest. A bumper sticker artist/ sinister mastermind, a young girl who becomes a master Harley mechanic, an ex B movie actress destined to be the first woman president, some brawling hillbillies and a parade of strong and interesting women round out this commentary on modern life, environmentalism, politics, literature and youthful idealism. http://www.amazon.com/dp/B004DNWCZQ
