Begin jaren ‘50 maakt de familie Donkers de grote oversteek naar de Nieuwe Wereld, het land van de Injuns. ‘Wij noemen jou hier Johnny!’ wordt er al snel voor Jan beslist. Donkeyville USA is een fictieve autobiografie, over een emigrantengezin dat een nieuw bestaan op probeert te bouwen. Het perspectief ligt bij de opgroeiende Johnny. ‘De A&P was een immense, helderverlichte winkel waar je met een klein karretje doorheen liep en alle boodschappen zelf van de planken kon pakken. Voor het eerst sinds onze aankomt maakte ik mee dat moeder iets van onbekommerde vreugde uitstraalde. "Kijk nou eens, zakdoekjes van papier, heb je ooit zoiets gezien?”’ Donkeyville USA verscheen als wekelijks feuilleton in de Volkskrant.
