On this road trip, the past is a boneyard, up ahead is the end of the
line, and along the way Myra Stark and Pinkie are driving a 1984
Plymouth Turismo from Minnesota through Wisconsin. The travelers pick
up a battered hitchhiker, follow a detour into the darkly comic Stark
family history, and veer off track more than once. "Road Trip" is a
narrative of disappointment and failed rescues, about the ghosts that
haunt us and the relationships we leave behind.
