Description
Ray Castle's Moon Juice Stomper: A Novel is set in Goa from 1987 to 1996, a time when cultural exiles and outcasts converged on the Arabian Sea. This story weaves together music, politics, intrigue, and psychodrama, capturing the essence of "Gonzo Goa." The novel follows Asia traveller Jules Nightingale as he falls under the spell of a bewitching siren, and fashionista Zsu Rivieria as she uncovers an Omen in Disco Valley. Meanwhile, Bollywood actor Naresh Kumar embarks on an undercover assignment that upends his life. In this unflinching portrayal, Castle delves into the mystical anarchy of "Gonzo Goa," where the boundaries between reality and fantasy blur. With attention to detail reminiscent of Castenada and HS Thompson, Castle crafts a scintillating narrative that transports readers to the heart of this freakish era. Through its characters' experiences, Moon Juice Stomper reveals the complexities of human nature in the face of chaos and transformation.
