A Great Writer Flying Under the Radar Oct 25, 2008
I find it very unfortunate that writers like Kevin C. Wilson can fly for so long under the radar. The writing in "The Route" is superb, and it's a real shame that this was never picked up by a major publisher. The story follows Peter Foster in his day-to-day struggles to find a place to sleep and a few dollars for cigarettes and food, all of which are distractions from his real goal of getting his screenplay turned into a movie. "The Route" is humorous but bittersweet, reminding me simultaneously of books by Jack Kerouac, Kurt Vonnegut, and the films of Wes Anderson, in which there are many nonsequitors but within the characters' world, everything seems to make sense.
Take some time to put aside the established writers from the major publishing houses, and give Kevin Wilson a chance--you won't regret it.
