The Pilgrim

Set in 1969, the story chronicles one year in the life of the author.

Fresh out of high school, he travels to south Florida with his father to work in the booming construction business.
He is soon swept up in the late sixties’ world of sex, drugs, and rock and roll.
Questioning his own values and the morals of those around him, our hero takes many paths on his journey to self-discovery.

Social unrest, racial injustice, the Vietnam War and the specter of recent assassinations are just some of the issues facing the youth of this era.
Throw in young love and the pitfalls that it brings and the story gets even more complicated.

Funny, insightful and sometimes heartbreaking, this is the age-old story of young versus old, ideals versus reality.

Told in a fresh, entertaining manner, the story will leave you anticipating a sequel.
