Sobre este e-book
A part-time emergency medical technician humorously chronicles life in a small Wisconsin town, featuring tales of romance and auto repair.
Hilarious and heartfelt, Truck: A Love Story is the tale of a man struggling to grow his own garden, fix his old pickup, and resurrect a love life permanently impaired by Neil Diamond. In the process, he sets his hair on fire, is attacked by wild turkeys, and proposes marriage to a woman in New Orleans. The result is a surprisingly tender testament to love.

“Perry takes each moment, peeling it, seasoning it with rich language, and then serving it to us piping hot and fresh.” —Chicago Tribune
“A reminder, by a talent of the hinterlands, to celebrate small-town life and to treasure human relationships.” —Kirkus Reviews
