- Young men, Fiction, Letter writing, Interpersonal communication
The story of a young man who leaves home with only his blind dog, an MP3 player, and a book, traveling aimlessly for three years, from motel to motel, meeting people on the road. Rather than learn the names of his fellow travelers--or invent nicknames for them--he assigns them numbers.
