Produktbeschreibung
They met at Woodstock, and the love lasted a lifetime. Then she was gone, and so was his college teaching job. Heartbroken but determined, he calls on his two best friends to help him return to the place it all began. One last chance to say "Goodbye Emily." The professor and his Woodstock buddy need the third tripper from back in the day, now in a nursing home with early stage Alzheimer's. When the home refuses to allow their friend to come along, the professor and the vet bust him out, attracting the attention of the cops and the media, fascinating the public. The roadtrip turns into a flight from "the man" and not even the professor's defense attorney daughter can help. In a psychedelic van, the trio dodge cops and prosecutors. Against all odds, they close in on their destination, where thousands of supporters and cops await them. Goodbye Emily is the irreverently funny story about a journey of self-discovery for a man who thought he'd left all important journeys in life behind.
Autorenporträt
Michael Murphy uses his life experiences to tell great stories. His lifetime of living on the West Coast and having a wonderful brother, combined with his desire to tell a story, led to the writing of Kane's Guest Book and Yakutian Magic. His love for reading and travel fuels his writing, which builds on themes of learning to accept and overcome difficult challenges in life, and characters coming into their own. When not writing, Murphy enjoys cycling, walking, and spending time in the outdoors. He lives in the Fraser Valley, British Columbia, with his beautiful wife of forty years.
