Review Quotes:
"A roaming, rambunctious account about rejecting society-and then embracing it.... The author's prose is conversational but steeped in its own cleverly outlined philosophy.... While the author is an able storyteller with plenty of colorful anecdotes, his interest in morality provides a unique ballast in what would otherwise be a typical but entertaining tale of adolescent mischief. His evocative depiction of the time and its subcultures helps make this a memorable and ultimately quite surprising autobiography."
