DOWNLOAD EBOOKIt's the late Sixties, the Beatles intact, Jimi Hendrix exploding and the Doors demanding the world. And on the East Coast, Asbury Park, New Jersey, will become the epicenter of a new brand of rock and roll. But as "The Red Album of Asbury Park Remixed" unfolds, a boardwalk Liverpool lies in the future. Racial tensions, escalating crime and a fading reputation as a first-class resort have shaken the City by the Sea. Asbury is at tipping point. Against the backdrop of a fabled town in trouble, 22-year-old musician Sam Nesbitt, who escaped a corrupt and dead-end life in "The Perfume Factory," struggles to rid himself of his personal demons, past and present, as he pursues a rock 'n' roll dream. Alex Austin is a Los Angeles-based novelist and playwright. "The Red Album of Asbury Park Remixed" is the sequel to Austin's critically acclaimed novel "The Perfume Factory," a coming-of-age story set on the Jersey Shore. Portions of "The Red Album" have been published in CalArts literary magazine Black Clock.
