CARRY ME: Cars, Roads & the Sweet Wide Open


Okay, today is the official publication date of my new novel, CARRY ME, in the US. Now at your local indie bookstore. Also available at Amazon, if you prefer.
In a review that appeared yesterday, the book “thrills” the Washington Post, which says: “At the center of Peter Behrens’s new novel, Carry Me,throbs the bloody heart of history” and the review quotes from (ahem) the book, on a theme familiar to Autoliterate aficionados, the existential joy of cars, roads and the sweet wide open.
“The past was behind us,” Billy says. “The Plymouth was taking us in the right direction, toward the future. Sage smelled like incense, and small, hasty, finely tuned animals were moving like our best dreams across open country.”
