Lost in the Summer of '69 by Eliza Knight

 

This is a not to miss novel. It is lyrical in prose, steeped in a history of music and change, and a beautiful relating of the ways people set in the rules of the ‘60s could change. For readers of a certain age, it is a book of nostalgia. For others, a tale of generations gripping hold of a new and different reality. An excellent novel all around.
