BBQ Beer Freedom

When Tag, an artist reinventing himself, flees New York and his family's grip, he takes to the open road with little plan and no destination. Ranging across the Midwest with unlikely companions, he leaves a trail of politically charged graffiti on government buildings-work whose meaning remains opaque even to its maker. He finally lands in a makeshift community forming at the edge of the continent, where he must reconcile himself to the unfamiliar freedom taking shape around him. Inhabiting the world of Ayn Rand's Atlas Shrugged, the novel asks what becomes of that philosophy in the hands of those who inherit it.
