Synopsis
Beast is a pure innocent with one simple goal--to become an expert on the Middle Ages. He comes to Berkeley, the Cathedral of Learning in a time of political upheaval, hallucinogenic drugs, group sex, and electric-acid-psychedelic-mind-bending rock and roll. On his quest for meaning he hangs out with a Harley-riding little man, a raven-haired Gothic artist's model, a sorority girl with a high sex drive, a Prize winning poet, and the heir to a family of French aristocrats with a bloody history dating back to before Joan of Arc. Beast discovers that he can't live in the past but has to embrace the present with all its traps and land mines and horrors of contemporary society--death by motorcycle and bad acid trips.

Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: new. Sweet, M. Anne (illustrator). Paperback. The Book of Changes - Book Three of the California Quartet - is a kaleidoscopic, episodic novel set in Berkeley in the late '70s. The story is built from a sequence of sharply drawn, self-contained yet thematically linked stories. Across its many vignettes (titles like The Story Revolution, The White Wings of Death, City of Light, The Gorgon 2314, The Woman in Red, The Politics of Cynicism. The book explores identity, transformation, artistic struggle, and the forces-psychological, cultural, and historical-that shape human lives. The style moves with ease between realism, surrealism, philosophy, and satire, creating a collage-like portrait of characters in moments of crisis, revelation, or reinvention. The effect is a meditative, sometimes confrontational examination of change itself, delivered with a distinctive blend of intensity, lyricism, and intellectual rigor.
