Because sometimes you have to travel 5,000 miles to find what matters. Set in 1993, Paul and Carol Go to Guatemala is part travelogue, part social commentary and part romance. The novel chronicles a couple's budding relationship as they explore a wild and wonderful third-world country in the final throes of civil war. The novel is peppered with more than two dozen photographs of the people, places and things Paul and Carol encounter on their journey. The story has a distinct "you-are-there" feel and draws you right into the rough terrain of reluctant love, cold showers and impassible roads. Paul and Carol Go to Guatemala will appeal to bold voyagers, couch potatoes and everyone else in between as this strange and wonderous land-and Carol's innermost secrets--are revealed. Through Carol's journal entries, it weaves the compelling story of two wayward travelers who learn to appreciate the raw beauty of a ravaged land...and fall in love along the way-with Guatemala and each other. But will they survive lost luggage, chicken busses, active volcanoes, Mayan ruins, food poisoning and a fateful game of "Hearts?" Time will tell.
