The summer of 1966 in America is a time of rock and roll, political unrest, and the constant stress of the devastating conflict in Vietnam. Erwin “Erv” Krause is fresh out of college and facing graduate school enrollment. With the endless responsibility of real adult life just around the corner, Erv knows now may be his last chance to satisfy the deep desire for adventure that’s been burning inside him since childhood.
Erv’s good friend Paddy is in the final stages of a troubled marriage that’s ending all too soon. Seeing his friend mired in life’s muck, Erv rouses the adventurous spirit in Paddy as well. Soon enough the plan is set, and the two friends embark on a cross-country road trip on their beloved Harley-Davidson motorcycles.
From his time as a travel-loving youth in the cozy College Point neighborhood of Queens to his obsession with motorcycles as a teen, Escape from the USA is Erv Krause’s recollection of the unavoidable lure of adventure that leads him and Paddy on an unforgettable road trip that embodies the spirit of youth.
