"From one of the brightest new talents in Europe comes this debut auto-biographical work, focusing on taxi rides from four cities: Los Angeles, Paris, Jakarta, and Washington, D.C. As the drivers slowly open up about their personal lives, de Jongh does too, even when it means challenging her own ideas and prejudices. Through these vulnerable--and often humourous -- moments, de Jongh finds common ground with the people driving her. Taxi! is an ode to taxi drivers everywhere."--
