With bit more than a run-down Jeep and their newborn baby in tow, publisher Micah Perks' parents set out in 1963 to create a institution and a utopian community in the mountains. The school would become known as a destination to send young adults with drug addictions and psychological problems, children with whom Micah and her sister would develop up. This sophisticated memoir mixes a moving celebration of the utopian nature and its desire for community and flexibility with a lacerating critique of the results of those wants - especially for the children included. How could the campaign for a perfect home and family create such misunderstandings and damage? The '60s, for most, became a lab of desire and chaos, as young idealists analyzed the restrictions of possibility. Micah Perks has cast her unflinching and specific eye on her own background and has illuminated not only those many years of her child years, but a wide-open point in time that proclaimed our culture for all time.
