"5 Stars!"A young U.S. Army veteran (Jefferson Long Soldier) returns home safely after two tours of duty in Iraq, convinced that the book he carried with him (One Hundred Years of Solitude by Gabriel García Márquez) saved his life. But as hard as he tries to reclaim his peaceful life in Santa Fe, the dark memories of war keep haunting him. After an unsuccessful attempt to seek care at the local VA hospital, he finds an alternative therapist who helps him reach a decision about what to do. Jefferson decides that he needs to tell his story to García Márquez, whom he refers to affectionately as "GGM," so he borrows his cousin Nigel's motorcycle and rides south across the border to Mexico in search of the famous author. The adventure that follows is a heart-warming journey of healing and self-discovery that will stay with you.Humorous, redemptive and awash in magic realism, Out There is a beautiful homage to Gabriel García Márquez and a celebration of books that have a made a difference in our lives.˃˃˃ It's the book that many are calling the "Catcher in the Rye" for the Iraq/Afghan War generation.Get your copy today.
