Bøger af Jeremy Lee

"We have thirty days to write, rehearse, and stage a theatrical adaptation of the Odyssey, people have been promised a show that will blow their minds, and the budget is gratis." With these words estranged friends from New York, Chicago, and San Francisco theaters descend on a small theater in Denver to try and save a kid's afterschool program. In a frantic haze they tear down most of performance space, rebuild it, bicker with locals and each other alike, fall in love, in lust, out of love, and ultimately the twenty and thirty-something's have to answer the question of whether or not this is what they really want to still be doing now that they're grown up, or if they're grown up at all.

In a century that set out to tame, civilize, and revolutionize the world Teddy always managed to stay a step ahead and find the last wild places. Where I'm Bound I Can't Tell opens with a troubled kid in the nineties named Lee smart-mouthing his way through community service, yet meeting one old man will forever change his life. Born in 1900 Teddy could never stand still, running away to join the French Foreign Legion as a boy he never returns to the states until the 1980's. Along the way he crosses deserts, explores the Amazon, bears witness to Gandhi's movement, sails oceans, hunts with Zulu, and becomes an aid worker in Africa. While Lee struggles to grow up and learn what kind of man he is going to be Teddy teaches him about the infinite possibilities and devastating tragedies of life.
