Kích thước: 153 x 234 x 42mm In June, 1954, eighteen-year-old Emmett Watson is driven home to Nebraska by the warden of the juvenile work farm where he has just served fifteen months for involuntary manslaughter.

With his mother long gone, his father recently deceased, and the family farm foreclosed upon by the bank, Emmett plans to pick up his eight-year-old brother Billy and head to California to start a new life.

But when the warden drives away, Emmett discovers that two friends from the work farm have stowed away in the trunk of the warden's car. They have a very different plan for Emmett's future, one that will take the four of them on a fateful journey in the opposite direction - to New York City.

Bursting with life, charm, richly imagined settings and unforgettable characters, The Lincoln Highway is an extraordinary journey through 1950s America from the pen of a master storyteller.

Vào tháng 6 năm 1954, Emmett Watson, mười tám tuổi, bị quản giáo của trại lao động vị thành niên đưa về nhà ở Nebraska, nơi anh ta vừa thụ án mười lăm tháng vì tội ngộ sát.

Mẹ đã mất từ lâu, cha vừa qua đời và trang trại của gia đình bị ngân hàng tịch thu, Emmett dự định đón cậu em trai 8 tuổi Billy lên đường đến California để bắt đầu cuộc sống mới.

Nhưng khi người cai ngục lái xe đi, Emmett phát hiện ra rằng hai người bạn từ trang trại đang làm việc đã cất gọn trong cốp xe của người cai ngục. Họ có một kế hoạch rất khác cho tương lai của Emmett, một kế hoạch sẽ đưa bốn người họ vào chuyến hành trình định mệnh theo hướng ngược lại - đến thành phố New York.

Bùng nổ sức sống, sự quyến rũ, bối cảnh tưởng tượng phong phú và những nhân vật khó quên, Đường cao tốc Lincoln là một cuộc hành trình phi thường qua nước Mỹ những năm 1950 dưới ngòi bút của một người kể chuyện bậc thầy.
