It's every parrothead's dream: to leave behind the rat race of the workaday world and start life all over again amidst the cool breezes, sun-drenched colors, and rum-laced drinks of a tropical paradise. It's the story of Norman Paperman, a New York City press agent who, facing the onset of middle age, runs away to a Caribbean island to reinvent himself as a hotel keeper. (Hilarity and disaster - of a sort peculiar to the tropics - ensue.)

Silly but Charming. Funny, Smart and Memorable.

although it is a fictional name the island of Amerigo if you've been to any of the US Virgin Islands you will totally understand and be able to relate to the culture. it doesn't take long to figure out that Norman did not have any background knowledge before opening the hotel.
