What was the Sixties era really like? It was America at war and protest against the war; the feminist movement, gay liberation, communes, and the psychedelic revolution. This is the backdrop for the novel Low In The Sixties, which brings to life this formative period in American culture. Whether you experienced the '60's or you are just looking for an absorbing story, this book offers a captivating read. Eli Richards embarks on a hitchhiking odyssey across the tumultuous landscape of America in 1967, and then into exile in Canada, because he refuses to don the uniform of his career Army father, the man who abandoned him to a broken childhood. Along the way, he encounters Beth, the impassioned painter who is seeking the freedom to follow her art; Dolly, who with Eli's help, must enter the murky world of illegal abortion; Lela, the revolutionary from a small African country; and a band of idealists who are building a commune on an island in the far north. What began as a rejection of Eli's painful past transforms itself into a journey of awakening. Ranging from a Denver crash pad to the jazz scene in L.A., from an anti-war march in Washington to the tribulations of an illegal immigrant in Canadian Vancouver, this novel takes the reader on an unforgettable road trip that examines social issues still relevant today.
