I read this in 1972, and had already partly lived it, mostly in London and on my travels. He was right about police of that time. Though the characters were my age and I was part of the hippie scene, I didn't like three of the main characters then and I feel the same today as I read it again. My impression is that Michener didn't really have a clue about young people of that time, hippies or not, and I consider parts of it to be rather misogynistic and naive wishful thinking. But then, he was much older than those he was trying to write about. However, he was spot on about the hard-line islamification of Africans - way ahead of his time there.

This is the quintessential fictional account of the "summer of love", centred mostly in Torremolinos in July 1969 (I, in my mid-twenties at that time was touring Europe, and I didn't go there despite advice from friends - I'm still kicking myself). The characters come from varied backgrounds and countries, one is a draft-dodger, another a fugitive from the law. The attitudes of the youth of that period are detailed, the music, sex, drug culture, the counter-culture (the anarchistic movement which called itself The Weathermen is portrayed as The Haymakers). The book examines the background to the six-day war in the Middle East by means of fictional account, and there are some telling quotations at the start of each chapter which it is well to read in the light of present-day political taboos and restrictions on free expression. The South African situation at the time is also examined as the characters visit Mozambique and meet some Afrikaner Nationalists.This is a work of stature. Not a factual history, maybe, but perhaps a better account of the era and its perspectives than might be found in a history book. If you want to understand Western youth of that time, read it.

one book you should read in your life is this one, won a plethora of awards in its day and although it is about the 60s the text is still pertinent to today's life.
