The Slow Route Home - Radical Routes Series, #1

Miguel has sold his truck and bought a mule. Everyone in the village believes he is crazy, but Miguel follows a wisdom far greater than those that mock him. Miguel's neighbours, his dog and the strange neighbour with the burnt trees are about to learn the benefits of going slow. This short story is takes place amongst the olive groves of Andalusia. Miguel's desire to live the way he thinks the world may confound his neighbours, but his simple philosophy and way of life symbolise another path open to us all.
This is book 1 in the Radical Routes series. In book 2, Inside the Tortilla, the Hound sets off to live and let live in a forgotten urban envirnoment, set between the cities of Seville, Malaga and Granada. There he adjusts to another tempo and dicovers recipes for another way of living. In book 3, Way fo the Hound, he responds to the call from the great kennel in the sky, but before he sets off for his final walk, reminds us of all the important things we have overlooked.
