So Glad I’m Glad I’m Glad

Burney Sundin is an educated young man of the 1960s who is uncomfortable with conventional lifestyles and has settled into San Francisco's underworld out of attraction for the beat-hipster social experiment percolating in the low-rent Haight-Ashbury district. He enjoys the community of rock-n-roll, drugs, and organic meals, but mystical hedonism leaves him dissatisfied and in need of purpose and income. So he cleans up and lands a job representing a textbook publishing company at colleges in Southern California, trading his VW for a sports car and moving into an apartment with his new girlfriend in Laguna Beach. The job and LSD lead him into a labyrinth of academic intrigue and intellectual posturing, a clash of profit and poetry that ultimately ends his business career, while his girlfriend takes him on a path through insanity to pastures of lucidity.
