Maypole Man: a novel of the sixties, explores a time when traditional American values were challenged; including everything from sexual mores, racial justice, the relevance of religion, and the government's authority. Ultimately, it was a time when violence brought the country to the brink of imploding. It was an intense time, creative but painful, an era where passions ran high and unlikely bonds were made. People turned on, dropped out, and a country's divide took long to heal. Such is the theme of Maypole Man: a novel of the sixties; a story of the disillusioned and their search for truth.
