Return to Chewelah: A Story of Innocence and Loss

A Northwest psychedelic youth culture of the sixties and seventies, free love, open education, fast living, Vietnam, pot, horsback riding, car and plane wrecks, marital challenges, countyr life, a roasting of medical rehabilitation programs, and many other topics are covered in lyrical and humourous tones. Janet May lived a fast life, broke her neck in a horse riding accident, then put her life back on track after a battle with drugs and despondency. Her narrative has a magical quality that mingles personal struggle with airy summertime memories of life in Washington state’s high cattle country.
