A Guided Tour is about circles. About going out of your way just to get back in it. About running so fast you forget the planet is round, and all roads will eventually lead back to themselves.
Presented in a format traditionally associated with children’s literature, Guided Tour asks the reader to regress into childhood while maintaining the wisdom of adulthood. Prose and illustrations work together to abstract locations and memories. The unassuming form allows for a level of honesty usually not encouraged when examining one’s past. This text explores what can happen when a person is excused from the work of performance and is simply allowed to indulge their curiosity—as a child would. A Guided Tour marks the reconciliation of boyhood and manhood, helping the author and reader make peace with all this spinning.
