Green Bike follows the lives of three couples, using the McGuffin, or shared symbol, of a classic Schwinn bike to link parallel tales. Following these tenuously linked tales, Green Bike is at once a muted romance, a graduate school bedroom romp, and a love letter to a dying mother.
"Green Bike reads like jazz improvisational solos: each author works the narrative threads, making them distinct yet seamlessly interwoven to create a layered novel. Like the classic Schwinn of the title, this book will lead you on a wonderful adventure," says Hardy Jones, author of Every Bitter Thing.
Rabas calls the novel "a wild campus romp." He said, "It's at once a love story, a love triangle, a kunstlerroman (artist's way novel), coming of age tale, wild college days tale, and tale about losing an aging loved one. How can it be all of these things? Because it's a novel of parallel tales. We're not just in one narrative. We're in three."
