Summary

A wildly inventive, funny, yet genuinely moving story of a young father dealing with the difficulties of grown-up life: raising a child, an aging parent and finding real love. Written in the kind of experimental prose that Melville House is known to champion, How to Keep Your Volkswagen Alive is also a highly emotive work with a broad appeal, which will delight readers who enjoy the slightly off-kilter worlds found in the writing of George Saunders and Jonathan Letham.
