When the woman Jake Massry lives with leaves him for another man because he can't succeed as a writer, and his Old World father, on his deathbed, orders him to get a "real" job, Jake, to get his head straight, hits the highways of America in his worn-out VW bus Old Bones in search of himself and his country. It's Spring 1974--prices are spiraling upward and President Nixon is embroiled in the Watergate fiasco.
