Opis

Before they would take their place among the best known minds of the twentieth century, a youthful trio of men-Joseph Campbell, John Steinbeck, and Ed Ricketts-became best of friends among the fecund hills of California's Carmel Valley. As Depression and Prohibition gripped the country, these three embarked upon a journey of burgeoning passion and ideas, propelling them toward future provenance, but also down a path that would tear their friendship apart. Myth and psychology expert Michael Hanson imagines this brilliant and sometimes torrid period of their lives in this work of historical fiction.
