The Terrifying Car Crash That Inspired a Masterpiece Fifty years ago, a Kansas family picked up a hitchhiker on their way to Iowa. What happened on that drive became part of literary history.

In 1972, in Kansas, a family of four picked up a hitchhiker. Then they got into a near-fatal car crash. The hitchhiker later chronicled the event in an acclaimed short story that became a movie—and a word-of-mouth hit among Gen Xers.

It’s a big giant book like what’s in there that could possibly take up all those pages? Believe me, you will be near the end and wonder how it went so fast. I’m a book crybaby I’ll admit it but x3 so far I had to stop and absorb this emotional story. Maybe for the truth of things. Rare lately.
