Publisher's Synopsis
9 years before Lady Bird lived on the wrong side of the tracks, we were off the rails... A psychedelic whirlwind journey about coming of age in a haze of love, drugs and academia in Sacramento, California. Simultaneously fast-paced and tender, a countercultural mix of first times, friendships, travel, experiential excess and ongoing mysticism. Jack Kerouac's "On the Road" meets Hunter S. Thompson's "Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas." Poignant and poetic as a boyman struggles to integrate his own dichotomous life.
