“I was in a pillow fight with fate, and it was kicking my ass.” Accidentally Okay, A Memoir
When life hands you lemons, make lemonade. What the overused adage fails to illuminate is the sequence of kitchen mishaps upon juicing those lemons. Accidentally Okay, A Memoir takes the reader on a genuine, quirky, and satirical journey across Europe with twenty-one year old Jordan Pease. During a time of ambiguity, Jordan is constantly questioning the aspects of true happiness. Somewhere between strangers, spilt red wine, and urine soaked skinny jeans, Jordan’s puzzle pieces are slowly coming together. Centered in conservative Verona, Italy, a 90-day expedition drops Jordan completely out of his element. Yet to his surprise, among accidental brawls, foreign 80’s rock and roll, drug experimentation, and motorized scooters, his deepest inquisitions are answered.
