Mapping Generic Streets
Phillip, Jess, and Mitchell are all Hudsons, and they are about to lose a woman, the same woman. Mapping Generic Streets
is just one weekend in the life of the three Hudson men, and the last
weekend for the woman they are all about to lose. Bedrooms, the Boy
Scout Motto and youth cannot compete with the challenge of family, and
what makes up family for these three men.Mapping Generic Streets
is any town, any place, any suburbia in this country where a restaurant
owner can support his family, a place where boys can work, or
participate in the Boy Scouts. Phillip’s loneliness, Jess’s
impetuousness, and Mitchell’s heroics over the course of the weekend
cannot prepare them for the events of Sunday afternoon. The quiet
language and easy going nature of these characters lends appeal to peace
in their confusion, even when they don’t know it. Change of life
happens so quickly, sometimes one action, one word, one breath. Mapping Generic Streets is that one breath.213 Pages. 47,000 Words.
