Drop City
of T. Coraghessan Boyle (Goodreads Author), Richard Poe (Narrator)
Description
It is 1970, and a down-at-the-heels California commune devoted to peace, free love, and the simple life has decided to relocate to the last frontierâthe unforgiving landscape of interior Alaskaâin the ultimate expression of going back to the land. Armed with the spirit of adventure and naĂŻve optimism, the inhabitants of âDrop Cityâ arrive in the wilderness of Alaska only to find their utopia already populated by other young homesteaders. When the two communities collide, unexpected friendships and dangerous enmities are born as everyone struggles with the bare essentials of life: love, nourishment, and a roof over oneâs head. Rich, allusive, and unsentimental, T.C. Boyleâs ninth novel is a tour de force infused with the lyricism and take-no-prisoners storytelling for which he is justly famous.
