Love Steinbeck, but also love that Waters calls out how much he actually embellished for Travels with Charley in the prologue to this book lol

a lot of people complain about the “good ride/bad ride” portions of this book but I think his description of the worst case scenario hitchhiking journey, ending in him being murdered by a trucker who specifically hates alternative film directors, is one of the better exercises in anxiety I’ve ever seen
