Book Review : Drop City by T.C. Boyle

T.C. Boyle's ninth novel is nothing short of the satirically evocative fare we've come to expect from the master storyteller.

It is 1970, and a down-at-the-heels California commune devoted to peace, free love, and the simple life has decided to relocate to the last frontier—the unforgiving landscape of interior Alaska—in the ultimate expression of going back to the land. Armed with the spirit of adventure and naïve optimism, the inhabitants of "Drop City" arrive in the wilderness of Alaska only to find their utopia already populated by other young homesteaders.
