For 6,557 miles, from New York to Mississippi to Seattle, Chuck Klosterman decided to chase rock'n'roll and death across a continent. 21 days later, after three relationships, an encounter with various cottonmouth snakes, and a night spent snorting cocaine in a graveyard, Klosterman started to order his thoughts on American culture and the meaning of celebrity.
