Description

A TRUE AMERICAN TRILOGY NOMINATED FOR A PULITZER PRIZE! THREE BOOKS IN ONE! "A great story, told by a master storyteller. I laughed and I cried. Destined to become a bestseller!" Larry King "Ribbons of Concrete is a gut wrenching and incredible first novel featuring one man's journey into hell. His uncanny sense of style, with description, pathos, and storytelling are truly remarkable. Only someone who actually lived this odyssey could pen such memories, and it makes Kerouac's "On the Road" seem like a poor man's "Dick and Jane." Steven Chamberlin-Editor "A warm and remarkable story of a man's heart and soul. A chronicle of his crusade to redeem not only himself, but the mortal lives and futures of others. The book is a beautiful journey into the mind and desperate times of Jack Vink. A must read for anyone who takes the precious gifts of love and life for granted. I found myself wanting to reach out and rescue him." Mary-Anne Elwood "The story takes you places you don't want to leave as you are caught up in the adventure and mishaps of this banished man. You won't want to set the novel down to leave this man alone for a minute. It captured my heart and soul." Laurie Berger-Jackson PhD "Ribbons of Concrete is one of the most interesting book I ever had the pleasure to read. It is an intriguing story rich in romance, love, heartache and personal tragedy. Jack Vink is very talented and has a successful future ahead of him as a writer." Linda K. Rowe-Writer Anonymous "A modern day Ulysses, right out of Homer's Odyssey, traveling the backroads of America“/p>
