At turns humorous, dramatic, and pensive, this is a fictionalized memoir based on the very real experiences of a young man from the Czech Republic traveling to the U.S. for the first time. The story starts with Filip’s job as a dishwasher in a Pennsylvania summer camp and ends with a coast-to coast road trip in an unreliable limousine named Matylda. In the process, he gives his reader fascinating stories of his own country’s history, and a tale of self-discovery as he seeks to understand both America and himself. Not just a means of making it from point A to point B, Matylda is a central character in this tale. She seems to guide the group of road-tripping pan-Slavic characters more than any map. This engrossing tale will broaden your perspective on a number of perennially relevant topics and forever change the filter through which you observe the world. Filip, whose wit and charm will engage you from the very first sentence, narrates their journey and will elicit smiles, chuckles and a few tears.
