Drop City

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 frontier - the unforgiving interior of Alaska - in the ultimate expression of going back to the land. Armed with the spirit of adventure and naïve optimism, the inhabitants of "Drop city" arrive only to find their utopia already populated by other young Alaskans who are successfully homesteading in the wilderness. As the two communities collide and winter sets in, unexpected friendships and dangerous enmities are born as everyone strugover one's head. Rich, allusive, and unsentimental, T. C. Boyle's ninth novel is a tour de force infused with the lyricism and take-no-prisoners storytelling for which he is justly famous.
