Product Description

This is a novel about a small band of friends who are part of a world wide psychedelic community loosely calling itself "the Tribe". Like many other forward-thinking people today, they are struggling to make the transition from cubicle-working consumers into beings who are more truly human.

The story that Lorenzo weaves is the tale of a young man caught between two worlds, the world of corporate America and that of people with a more psychedelic (soul manifesting) point of view. As things unfold, we experience his transformation from being a 29 year old “yuppie-geek” into a valuable member of the Tribe. The story begins in Palenque, Mexico and moves through Texas, Amsterdam, Viet Nam, and even on to Burning Man before reaching a surprising climax. Eventually, the hero of the story must choose between living in the corporate world or living free. At least, that is what he thinks until events sweep him along in an unforeseen direction.

More About the Author

In recent years, Lorenzo Hagerty has spent his time writing, podcasting, blogging, producing a lecture series, speaking at events, and being a grandfather. His professional career is as diverse as they come: attorney, consultant to Fortune 500 companies, electrical engineer, hot air balloon pilot, Internet/Java promoter, motivational speaker, movie stuntman, multimedia software developer, Naval officer, and technical writer. Hagerty was president of Success, Inc., which provided sales training and network marketing courses to other companies, and he founded Dynasty Computer Corporation, which sold home computers even before IBM did. He is an active member of the international corporation DigitalSpace, Inc., which designs virtual worlds for industrial engineering, education, and the public good.

Hagerty is perhaps best known as the congenial host of the Psychedelic Salon, a regular podcast series showcasing interviews, lectures, and assorted additional audio sources that feature some of the brightest, most creative individuals from the community of folks interested in psychoactives. He is the organizer of the Palenque Norte theme camp at Burning Man, dedicated to translocating the vibe from the Entheobotany seminars at the Chan Kah hotel in Mexico onto the dusty realm of Black Rock City.

A confidence man, someone who has the oratory ability to persuade the great mass of people to keep going to their shit jobs every day. Someone who can restore the people's confidence in the consumer society, the so-called American Way of Life, that's the kind of person they'll push on us after Bush. &quote;
