Literary Nonfiction. Memoir. "Mike Farrell's OF MULE AND MAN is a one-of-a-kind American road trip. It's a quite enjoyable ride with an observant and generous friend who is at home crisscrossing the country with a rental hybrid he calls Mule. Farrell travels through both the beautiful and busted landscape from desert to bayou, urban to rural, listening in and arguing silently with conservative talk radio found in even the most remote places, and ending each day at bookstores and community organizations to have conversations with activists, friends, and family who are doing the hard work of social justice in every neighborhood. 'Heroes abound in this world,' Farrell writes. He is one of them."—Walter Mosley
