A new work of literary fiction for a new American era; one that celebrates life, freedom and opportunity for all. Morris is a wanderer, a dreamer, a barroom philosopher and an incurable - some would say insufferable - romantic. By the time he arrives in a trance at JFK International, on the eve of a new and dauntless century, he is also nine and a half thousand miles from his tiny coastal hometown on the other side of the planet. Unmoored in a bold new country, which is hurtling through time at a blistering, maniacal pace, and set wide-eyed among its strange and wonderful citizens, Morris at first struggles to understand the 'Idea of America' and, by extension, his own place within it. So begins a classic adventure tale, one spiriting readers across America, past and future, as told through the uniquely observant eyes of an outsider looking in.

Autorenporträt
Joel Bowman was born and raised on the Gold Coast, Australia, where he passed most of his childhood on the beach and in the surf. In 2000 he emigrated permanently to nowhere in particular, and has been traveling the world ever since, living in Americas North and South, Easts Middle and Far and worlds Old and New, calling a dozen countries and many more cities home along the way. A journalist by training, Mr. Bowman's essays and columns have appeared in numerous news outlets and academic journals both in the US and abroad. After almost two decades writing and speaking publicly about politics, economics and international living, Mr. Bowman turned his hand to fiction. Morris, Alive is his debut novel. Mr. Bowman splits his time between Buenos Aires, Argentina, and the open road. He is at home wherever and whenever he is with his wife and daughter.
