Literary Classic
Rating: 5.0
Carrie Larsen spent the early ‘60s searching in the counterculture of the Great American West. Until she got tired.
In the Spring of 1967 she came home to her parents’ now-empty nest in Ohio, maybe just for a visit. It was where she’d been raised by her loving family as a small-town girl. She calls herself “a Buddhist, not a Romantic.” Carrie loves her parents as long as they last, though she resists her mother’s hopes that she get married and have children, not necessarily in that order. When not busy at the Veterinary Clinic on Main Street, Carrie spends a lot of time balancing her enthusiasm for sex, drugs, and rock and roll with compassion, a sense of justice, and hours of playing J.S. Bach on her mother’s Concert Grand Piano. Some would say she’s still leading the alternative reality she discovered out West… #ad
