Begin a captivating journey into an era that was both a time of overly indulgent forays into hedonism, as well as a unique period in our nation's history, when young Americans, politicized by the draft and the horrors of the Vietnam War, awakened to their sense of self and took responsibility for building a finer world. By the author of Border Crossings, this is an incisive portrayal into the essence of the American Myth as it played out on campuses and communes, in financial districts, and killing fields. It is a bright light on a time of revolutionary change, granting access to the thoughts, feelings and experiences of vividly drawn characters along side some of the cultural and political icons of the era. Sisters, Donna and Sally are bookends of the times trying to carve out their own ideals of peace and romance.
