Nature Boy

In 2021, Seán set out on his mission to be the first to sound record all the regularly occurring bird species in Ireland: a journey of discovery and wonder that has taken him to the four corners of Ireland. Nature Boy is the powerful story of a child who never fitted in - and a man who found his place in the world. It is a celebration of birds, connection and being true to yourself - and of the extraordinary, healing power of nature.

Escaping a family vacation in a little town east of Yosemite, Skye Pelter sings "Nature Boy" in a karaoke bar and triggers the adventure of a lifetime. Given an open calendar, a stealth '86 Toyota pickup truck and cold, hard cash, the only limits are his imagination and the Interstate Highway System. A wild, free-wheeling novel from the author of The Popcorn Girl and Operaville. "A stylistic cross between Tom Robbins, Kerouac, and Wes Anderson at their finest. Vaughn writes with a wit, tenderness, cerebral intensity and outright raunchy humor which fast becomes addictive." --CSLowe
