Simon feels like his life is in parenthesis-he got divorced, he embezzled from the company he worked for, he said he'd come back but didn't. Now, he tours the southern states of the US in a rental car. On the road he meets Adriana, a woman from Bolivia who shares the feelings of loss and insanity that have taken a hold of him. Road Story, part of a larger volume of short stories, is the critically acclaimed story of a Chilean trying to find himself in the middle of the barren landscapes of the border between the us and Mexico.
