About this series

A transformative novel of the Great Depression, both sorrowful and uplifting, full of impossible-to-forget characters, Nowhere Special to Go follows a young man and his dog as he takes to the rails in search of work and somewhere to belong. Pete will travel across the Great Plains and witness the unimaginative horror of a dust storm; he'll find friendship and kindness in transient camps. He'll look on in wonder at the majesty of the Mississippi, barely escape a tornado on the coastal plain of Georgia, and find work as a pack horse librarian. His destiny will await him in a place from his Midwestern roots—Vermont.

    Justyn didn't seek adventure; he sought work and a better life. He couldn't find either where he lived. With a dog as a companion, he jumped freight trains and crossed vast stretches of land, fighting hunger, danger, and hostile communities. Destiny awaits him. He just doesn't know it.
