My Generation: A Memoir of the Baby Boom
About this ebook
“Reflective yet contemporary,” My Generation charts a fast-paced, passionate, thoughtful and humorous journey of personal growth, showing how that growth can dramatically change the trajectory of your life--if you let it.
“For those who have been captivated by Kerouac, Ginsberg and Bukowski... they have the chance to add a new name in the pantheon: Nowick Gray. My Generation is a wonderful account of a new Neo who struggles to leave behind the American Matrix.”
About the author
In this intensely personal memoir, Nowick Gray charts a unique yet representative journey through the tumultuous sixties and seventies, seeking alternatives to corporate conformity and the looming threat of apocalypse. His self-exile from East Coast suburbia spirals through campus rebellion, California dreaming, a testy Canadian romance, and an Inuit village preparing for its own revolution... bound for a back-to-the-land utopia in the mountains of British Columbia.
Currently Nowick makes his home on Salt Spring Island, BC, where he writes fiction and creative nonfiction. He also works as a freelance copyeditor. When not engaged with words, he enjoys hiking, kayaking, and playing African drums.
