At its heart, Joyriding is the compelling narrative of a painfully shy 32-year-old Joyce Marcel who began traveling in 1974 after losing her career, her husband and her unborn child at nearly the same time.With strength, courage, naiveté and a measure of cluelessness, she created a new and adventurous persona on the road in South America. Among the things Joyriding describes: watching the birth of a deformed baby on a mountain bus at midnight; the amazing potions with which a witch doctor cured her of hepatitis; and becoming shipwrecked in the Amazon and hitching out on tugboats, navy vessels, dugout canoes, cars, trucks and airplanes. It includes several love stories.
It ends with a new career and, sadly, with a broken heart.
