Always have tissues ready in an airport.
For the detail. The hours home.
Then begin to tell me something.

Ambulances & Dreamers creates a world where people search for the thing they need the most – love, music, food or each other. It’s a book for the disappointed and the desolate in all of us. It is the weariness of the deserted 4 am street. It is the mumble from the karaoke bar and the folded message from the stale cookie. It is the possibility of something wonderful lurking in the cracks of something sinister.
