Amidst a pandemic, musician Rick Berlin quarantined in his Boston apartment and took to cataloging his personal artifacts and detritus in photos and text. The result is a poignant reflection on 75 years of life and of love in all its forms. "[Berlin] populates his writing with memories that will break your heart and wisdom disguised as tossed off one-liners. Walk through Berlin's House, flip on the lights room by room, see what he has left there for you and all of us." -Ryan Walsh, author of Astral Weeks: A Secret History of 1968

Though its population has surpassed 37,000 residents, Grove City has retained its small-town appeal while offering residents and visitors a revitalized town center, a major arts festival, and the "world's largest" alumni softball tournament.

As an avid traveler for most of his adult life, author Michael Loveday has always been keen to soak up all he can about the essence of places from more unconventional sources. Not for him the pre-packaged official line served up by tourist companies, visitor guides and the like. In Big Yellow ?????, Loveday presents an unofficial travel guide - perhaps guerilla tourism. He doesnt include the choreographed, scripted, shepherded travel, packaged conveniently by tour companies and delivered comfortably, palatably and politically correctly, drawing a veil over the controversial bits. Instead, Loveday offers insights and knowledge of real people, on the ground, who may often turn your view of their world on its head and can even scare you a bit, or make you laugh hysterically, but will never leave you cozy, unchallenged, or in your comfort zone. From Albania to Zurich, the local taxi driver will take you to places you didnt anticipate, both physically and psychologically, and will leave you with a much more insightful view of their place. Someone once said there is no truth in history and the same sentiment might be applied to foreign travel so sit back, grasp your seat, clench your buttocks, expect the unexpected and enjoy the ride.
