Memoirs of a Boomer by Don Lubov
"Memoirs of a Boomer" features a seven-day, outdoor rock festival in the woods, an invitation to a lynching, Mexican drug dealers, near death in the wilderness, a spiritual awakening and a ride with a Hell's Angel. Also explored is an assortment of group-living lifestyles...from a boardinghouse in Haight-Ashbury to a mega-warehouse project in San Francisco's Mission District. Highlighted are homelessness, a bizarre New Year's Eve and a stabbing in a cheap hotel.
"Memoirs of a Boomer" is an action-packed trek of some 4,500 miles by a teacher-turned-loner with a backpack. It's a true story in praise of and discovery of the U.S. from New York to California.
For baby-boomers and their children, and others, "Memoirs of a Boomer" is a step back in time to what was of what might have been. It's a timely reflection of a tumultuous period.
