β¦ Synopsis
Breakfast at the Exit CafΓ© begins as a personal story-told in alternating voices by two travellers and writers, Wayne Grady and Merilyne Simonds-of a journey by car from British Columbia around the rim of the United States. It soon becomes a journey of exploration. For Grady, whose forebears were slaves who came to Canada in the 1880s, this is a journey through fear, racism, and violence into his own family roots. For Simonds, who grew up a lonely Canadian in the American School of Campinas, Brazil, it is a journey into the heart of the ex-pat promised land, the nation of the American Dream.
