Funny Music — David Stone

It's 1975. The Bicentennial of a country in turmoil edges toward the horizon, and Peter McCarthy has extended a thread started in the the hippie counterculture as far as it can be stretched.
The shallow identity he patched together to survive within straight culture can't hold up. He throws all he has away to try starting over as the optimistic, freedom loving, happy go lucky character he once was, assuming he can still be found. Disasters ensue.
His marriage collapses, his job becomes too preposterous to continue, his love life extends in too many directions to survive, and he surrounds himself with characters who will stick with you and make you laugh long after the last page is turned.
Peter finally hits that wall. He lets you enjoy the passions, frustrations and fun of getting there and hope for redemption that follows.
