Fiction. Canadian Cultural Studies. I DON'T KNOW HOW TO BEHAVE combines the true story of Canadian daredevil and stunt driver Ken Carter (1938-1983) with imagined biographical elements from the lives of Canadian film director Bruce Mcdonald and Canadian poet Gillian Sze. Along the way, this quintessential Canadian story crashes head first into many related things, from screenplay theory to hip hop history to the story of early Canadian film to drawings to photographs to bank robberies to chaos theory to technical specs for Detroit muscle cars to re-imagined movies to imagined documentary to advertisements to newspaper interviews to instructions for making molotov cocktails to Evel Kneivel to Steve McQueen's Bullitt to self-help tomes to "rappers delight to online instructions for how to publish a book, such as the one you are about to read called I DON'T KNOW HOW TO BEHAVE by Michael Blouin.
