Description

1972. A TV network under congressional pressure hires a group of young singer-songwriters to create educational cartoons. Holed up in a studio with unlimited pot, acid, and sex, the young artists and their self-serving mentor seem to have found an artistic utopia. But when jealousy and betrayal replace grammar and multiplication as the musicians' focus, they struggle to pull their project together before it tears them apart.

It took me a long time to get into this book and by the end it was more of a push to get through it verses really enjoying it. It would be more appropriate for college age or high school students.
