What is Home Free: A Novel about?

A slacker hero embarks on a rollicking cross-country journey of love-ins and acid trips in this rich portrait of the 1960s When his foxy professor/girlfriend kicks him out of her apartment, perennial college student Gene Barrett sets off on a road trip in search of a place he can call home. He ventures from Boston to Maine to Iowa City, ultimately making his way to the ?last resort? of California{u2019}s Venice Beach. Experimenting with LSD, hash, and heroin, and encountering rock stars, draft dodgers, and natural food store proprietors living off the land, Gene zigzags through a cross-section of 1960s American counterculture. More than a freewheeling jaunt through the sixties, though, Home Free sheds light on the universal desire for love and belonging. Amidst the haze of drugs and free-loving hippies, Gene is forced to look inward and face his deeply human flaws{u2014}because eventually, his life will depend on it. With national bestselling author Dan Wakefield{u2019}s trademark fusion of gritty, journalistic prose and richly evocative language, Gene{u2019}s story is an engaging, somber meditation on self-awareness, responsibility, and growing up
