An intimate, funny, and poignant travel memoir following New York Times bestselling author and actor Andrew McCarthy as he walks the Camino de Santiago with his son Sam in an effort to get to know each other man to man. When Andrew McCarthy's eldest son began to take his first steps into adulthood, McCarthy found himself wishing time would slow down. Looking to create a more meaningful connection with his son before he fled the nest, as well as recreate his own life-altering journey from decades before, McCarthy decided to set off with his son, Sam, on a trek like few others: 500 miles across Spain's Camino de Santiago. Over the course of the journey, the pair traversed an unforgiving landscape, having more difficult and honest conversations in five weeks than they'd had in the preceding two decades, discussions of growing up, divorce, the trauma of school, McCarthy's difficult relationship with his own father, fame, Kanye West and Flaming Hot Cheetos that threatened to either derail their relationship or cement it. WALKING WITH SAM captures this intimate, candid and hopeful expedition as the father son duo travel across the trail and towards one another.

Patti Smith's Just Kids meets Rob Lowe's Stories I Only Tell My Friends in this beautifully written, entertaining and emotionally honest memoir by actor, director, and author, Andrew McCarthy. Most people know Andrew McCarthy from his movie roles in Pretty in Pink, St. Elmo's Fire, Weekend at Bernie's, and Less than Zero, and as a charter member of Hollywood's Brat Pack. The iconic group of ingenues and heartthrobs that included Rob Lowe, Molly Ringwald, Emilio Estevez, and Demi Moore, and has come to represent both a genre of film and an era of pop culture.

The result is a revealing look at coming of age in a maelstrom, reckoning with conflicted ambition, innocence, addiction, and masculinity.

Filled with personal revelations of innocence lost to heady days in Hollywood with John Hughes and an iconic cast of characters, Brat is a surprising and intimate story of an outsider caught up in a most unwitting success.
