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.
