TIn the iconic counterculture haven of Berkeley, California, Arnie's idealism and pursuit of authenticity collide with the harsh realities of adulthood. As he navigates the complexities of love, identity, and the masks we wear, he must confront the price of sanity and stability in a world that demands compromise. Can he hold onto his ideals or will the weight of reality strip away the masks and reveal the true self? The final installment in a trilogy, this novel probes the tension between idealism and reality, asking: what happens when the alternative life confronts the inevitable?
Andrew Fisher is a Clinical Psychologist practicing in the San Francisco Bay Area for over 50 years. He spent 35 years writing this trilogy of autobiographical novels. Mostly true, some fiction. Some regrets, mostly gratitude.
