The Matt Zander Journals

After a near-death experience, Matt Zander – an underachieving Toronto supermarket clerk – needs time to re-evaluate his life and sets out for California with a quiet young war veteran he meets in hospital.


But when their plane has a mid-flight scare over the skies of Colorado, the two strangers are forced to begin a cross-country road trip together, and as they drive long highway stretches of canyon country and reach the bright lights of Las Vegas, they begin to realize the destination was never as important as the journey itself.


A surprising and sharply observant look at the journey that is life, The Matt Zander Journals, is a thought-provoking novel about life, death, and everything in between.
