A Steven Froelich Misadventure – serie

Steven Froelich doesn’t just stumble into trouble – he hunts it down and makes it his constant companion. Fresh from a Miami drunk tank, Steven lands in Guatemala City. Riotous road trips follow, with our man perpetually wasted on booze and cocaine, but fuelled by a passionate curiosity about people from all walks of life. His guide? Antonio, a sweet-natured, streetwise hotel concierge who shepherds him through Antigua, Lake Atitlán, Monterrico and ultimately into the interior, where gringos are rare and deeply suspect. Then there’s glamorous, garrulous Anabella, with whom Steven strikes up an unlikely friendship, accompanying her back to the capital with her kids. He mooches a stay in her gated community, which bristles with armed guards and famous eccentrics. Unapologetically raw, unfiltered and darkly funny, Froelich explores the absurdities of the human condition, Guatemala-style.
