Going Native
of Stephen Wright
Description
Going Native is Stephen Wrightâs darkly comic take on the road novel, in which one manâs headlong escape from the American Dream becomes everybodyâs worst nightmare. Wylie Jones is set: lovely wife, beautiful kids, barbecues in the backyard of his tastefully decorated suburban Chicago house with good friends. Set, but not satisfied. So one night he just walks out, gets behind the wheel of a neighborâs emerald-green Galaxy 500, and drives off into some other life, his name changed, his personality malleable. In Wrightâs inimitable narrative, weâre taken on a joy ride to hell, a rollercoaster of sex and violence and the peculiar mix of the two that is our society today.
