Description
A new novel from T. Coraghessan Boyle explores the 1960s counterculture through the story of one family's experiences with LSD. Harvard in the early 1960s, Dr Timothy Leary hosts PhD students at his home, where they are introduced to the nascent drug culture. Among them is Fitzhugh Loney, a psychology student, and his wife Joanie, who become entangled in the charismatic and subversive world of Dr Tim. As their nights on LSD prove extraordinary and revelatory, Fitzhugh and Joanie embark on a quest for transcendence that takes them from sultry Mexican nights to a ramshackle mansion in upstate New York. Thirty devotees, including students, wives, and children, come together to play out the final act of a terrible, beautiful experiment. This novel is a thought-provoking exploration of the human experience during a pivotal moment in history.
