The Grand Tour of Park Ex is the follow-up to Andreas Kessaris’ acclaimed debut memoir, The Butcher of Park Ex, with sixteen original tales that chronicle his life, times, hardships, and misadventures as he tries to navigate a confusing and contradictory world made by and for neurotypicals. Beginning with the author’s years at Barclay Elementary in Park Ex, the stories invite the reader on a grand tour of his experiences through high school and college, his attempts to navigate the Montreal job market, his quest for true love, and the death of his father. Infused with additional tales of his parents’ immigrant experience and highlighted with Andreas’ unique perspective and signature humour, the narrative concludes with his return to Park Extension.
