How to keep your Volkswagen alive / Christopher Boucher.

Summary:

A hilarious radical debut novel that breaks every rule--yet also spins a tender, bittersweet tale about a single dad struggling to raise his son. Modeled on the bestselling 1969 hippie handbook of the same title, this wildly inventive tale is both a stunning tour-de-force and a wise and charming consideration of the stuff of great fiction: death, love, loss, responsibility, and road trips
