The book chronicles the story of Johnny, a young man from the confines of small-town Ohio, who finds himself in the throes of personal liberation at Kent State University. It's here that Johnny's path converges with Katie's, whose fervor for peace ignites an intimate and fervent love amidst the raging anti-war demonstrations.
