Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Infobox book

Detour is the debut novel of Michael Brodsky. It is the first person partly autobiographical[1] account of an often bored film devotee going to Cleveland for medical school, making observations on everything in his daily life, either in a philosophical manner, or by comparing any given incident with some classic film scene, or both. Halfway through, the narration is interrupted by Steve's story, also told in first person. The novel eventually resumes with the original first person narrator, who finally decides medical school is not for him.

Editions

Detour was republished in 1991 by Begos & Rosenberg, with a 1991 copyright, and no indication of any earlier edition, yet textually identical with the 1977 edition.

Detour was republished in 2003 by Del Sol Press, in an expanded, rewritten edition.
