He soon leaves his half-feral hometown for the big city, where he becomes the leader of an urban demolition derby called Party Crashing. On designated nights, the Party Crashers chase each other in cars in the hope of a collision, and all the while Rant, the 'superspreader', transmits his lethal desease.Author´s Note: This book is written in the style of an oral history, a form which requires interviewing a wide variety of witnesses and compiling their testimony.
