Beschreibung

In this triumphant bestseller, renowned novelist James A. Michener unfolds a powerful and poignant drama of disenchanted youth during the Vietnam era. Against exotic backdrops including Spain, Morocco, and Mozambique, he weaves together the heady dreams, shocking tribulations, and heartwarming bonds of six young runaways cast adrift in the world—as well as the hedonistic pursuit of drugs and pleasure that collapses all around them. With the sure touch of a master, Michener pulls us into the private world of these unforgettable characters, exposing their innermost desires with remarkable candor and infinite compassion.

Sex, Drugs and Rock'n'Roll, aus einer Zeit, in der solche Dinge noch möglich waren. Michner macht die Entwicklung junger Menschen in einer manchmal unverständlichen, abweisend Welt zu einer Achterbahnfahrt, auf der man gerne im ersten Wagen säße.
