The Garden of Eden is about drive-in restaurants, being young and dumb, South Knoxville, love and patriotism, The University of Tennessee, and the search for meaning when we were all a herd of confused whippersnappers. Then the story transports you via bus to Parris Island in sunny South Carolina where you’ll go through Marine Corps boot training with John and Bubba. Next you’ll receive a free flight, care of Uncle Sam, to exotic and tropical Vietnam where you’ll meet up with Master Sergeant Patrick Lucian Abernathy, and ‘Charlie’ ( your Viet Cong hosts ). Gunny will try his best to keep you alive. Charlie will try and kill you. Maturity sometimes comes at a high cost. Come join John and Bubba on their journey back through time to that forgotten world of the 1960s, their lives and loves and USMC friendships, and the humid jungles of Vietnam where mystery and death lurked back among the trees.
