Junker Dreams: An Automotive Memoir

Full of grit, humor and a mystical urban romanticism, this debut book of prose from a poet soars through a landscape of broken hearts, broken machines and the strident desire to live a fiercely uncommon life. From New Orleans to New York City and the miles of lost highway in between, Dickinson illuminates a colorful universe as it unfolds behind the wheel of these banged up yet beloved hunks of steel.
