Publisher's Summary

In less than a year, Neil Peart lost both his 19-year-old daughter, Selena, and his wife, Jackie. Faced with overwhelming sadness and isolated from the world in his home on the lake, Peart was left without direction. That lack of direction lead him on a 55,000 mile journey by motorcycle across much of North America, down through Mexico to Belize, and back again. He had needed to get away, but he had not really needed a destination. His personal odyssey is chronicled with his travel adventures, meeting up with friends and family, and the grieving, thinking, crying, and storytelling of life as he rides. Along the way, he plays music from his internal jukebox, yet nothing seems to let him find peace. And without peace, all he could do was keep riding until he found it.

His pain and humanity.

I love how candid Neil was. If his friend Brutus hadn't woefully gotten into trouble, Neil wouldn't have had all those wonderful letters to share that he had written to his friend in jail. He was sharing his experiences of the road with his friend via letters, who was supposed to be with him, and Neil wonderfully shared those with us.
Thank you, Elwood!!
This book is a MUST READ, for anyone who loves a great story, if only for its literary content.
Sad beginning but very happy ending.
P.S. I own the hard cover as well.

Never in a Rush to finish it. inspirational.

A solitary journey, heartfelt and poignant.
A must for Rush fans but also anyone who understands grief and the power of self healing.

Generous and meandering

As a drummer- musician- a lyrical listen nearly- a father and husband Neil keeps giving when away from music... no wonder he's so good writing songs. ..... he's endearing, engaging and creating freedom for the listener. Open, fluid and available as a writer and human. Thinking and feeling human being putting words - all those words- and thoughts into something you can reflect upon and enjoy
