Produktbeschreibung
David Hoffer rides his Harley Davidson Heritage Softail south on the Laurentian Autoroute to a memorial for a friend who died of prostate cancer. His back is killing him, and he has his own nagging pain in the butt. To finance new equipment, he has sold land adjoining his music video studio to the Children of the Sun, but now he sees that their religion isn't nude sunbathing. His affair with Roberta, half his age, is complicated by his attachment to his previous lover. His dopehead-adolescent inner child is annoyed with him. So is his ex-wife. So is his business partner. So are some others who don't like his style. Set in the Laurentians near the time and place of the Solar Temple cult's fiery apocalypse, Badass on a Softail is a culture-jamming fugue on what happens when the Age of Aquarius stares into the mirror and the Age of Acquisition stares back.
