"When the Charleston Peninsula broke off from mainland South Carolina and began floating out to sea, among the last to notice were those persons trapped on board the unlikely vessel . . ."

The old port city has welcomed its share of visitors over the years, but when a bureaucratic snafu brings the Bravado Arts Festival, the Tri-County Mini-Storage Convention, and the Hunters-for-Jesus Jamboree to town all at once, the load is just too much, and for the second time in as many centuries, Charleston secedes—this time, literally. Following the course of the wayward island and the oddball hodgepodge of natives, tourists, and carpetbaggers stuck on board, Outbound is both a hilarious send-up of entrenched society and a deft satire of contemporary American politics. Forget red states and blue states with bumpkins and bluebloods scrambling for the helm, a rowdy reckoning is in store.

Described as “a grand ride” by the Charleston City Paper and “wickedly funny” by the Charleston Post and Courier, this novel won the Independent Publishers Award for Best Regional Fiction, Southeast.

Outbound The Curious Secession of LatterDay Charleston edition by Charlie Geer Literature Fiction eBooks

Geer has written a very amusing and entertaining satire based on the several societies that make up Charleston, SC. Underneath the humor, though, is a thoughtful commentary on human nature. You don't have to be from Charleston to enjoy and appreciate this novel. If you come from a place with an aristocracy based on length of residence, mixed with an aristocracy based on wealth, combined with some "good ole boys", a proud minority, a few fanatical religious kooks, and an "artsy" crowd, then you are thoroughly prepared to enjoy this book. It's a good read!
