A stunning, poetic memoir “that will transport readers to a time when a nation’s youth searched for meaning against the backdrop of the Vietnam War” (Publishers Weekly). When she joins a pair of hitchhikers on a trip to California, a young Midwestern woman embarks on a journey of memory, beauty, and realization. This true story, set in 1971, recounts a fateful, nine-day trip into the American counterculture that begins on a whim and quickly becomes a mission to unravel a tragic mystery. The narrator’s path leads her to Berkeley, San Francisco, Mill Valley, Big Sur, and finally to an abandoned resort motel that has become a down-on-its-luck commune in the desert of southern Colorado. The Glimpse Traveler describes with wry humor and deep feeling what it was like to witness a peculiar and impossibly rich time. “A perceptive, engaging, intimate chronicle of the early 1970s, the road-weary hippie hitchhikers, the anti-war sentiment, the dope-induced haze. Boruch . . . captures this very specific, significant time and place with exquisite clarity and lyric detail and description.” —Dinty Moore, author of Between Panic and Desire

Excerpt from Glimpses of Truth: Spiritual, Ethical, Practical Ake a clean start with the new year. Lay aside every weight, that you may run well the race Set before you. You have been in wrong ways, get out of them now. You have long purposed to make changes for the better. The time is propitious for action. Begin the new year by healing the wounds of afl'ection and friendship. Alienations in Church and social and home relations are heavy hinderances to the Christian life. They darkened your Sky last year. The thought of the injury received, of the bitter speech report ed to your ears, intruded itself upon you even in the place of secret prayer, and fettered the movement of your soul in the worship of the sanctuary. The friction in the home-life made the wheels of family religion drag all through the year. These roots of bitterness in the heart stunted the growth of every flower that blooms in that garden of the Lord. You have brooded over the wrongs or little Slights that made the trouble until the arrow has gone still deeper (9) About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
