The Serial — Cyra McFadden

To mark 35 years since The Serial first satirized the silliness of 1970s California, the bestselling novel is back, with new artwork, bonus features, interviews and reviews from the time, plus a new preface by author Cyra McFadden.

So, are you into Living Together Relationships? Personal Growth? Human Life Styling? Is your desire Creative Control? Sadomasochism? Staying Mellow At All Costs?

Then you will relate to The Serial. Here, in 52 scintillating episodes, are the essential Kate and Harvey Holroyd, desperate fighters in the struggle to stay hip and loose in Marin County, California - a welter of lentil loaves, enzymes, whip fantasies, natural fibres, TM, Zen jogging and vibes both good and bad.

Set at the very epicentre of the self-obsessed 1970s, when everyone talks (without ever saying anything) in the psychobabble of faddish self-help manuals, it's the most sophisticated, liberated, high energy, naturally organic and hilarious adult soap opera ever!
