Produktbeschreibung

To mark 35 years since The Serial first satirized the silliness of 1970s California, the bestselling novel is back, with new artwork, bonus features, interviews and reviews from the time, plus a new preface by author Cyra McFadden. A comic send up of the 1960s Californian lifestyle - personal growth, human life styling and living together relationships. Kate and Harvey Holroyd try to stay hip and loose through a welter of lentil loaves, natural fibres, enzymes and Zen jogging. From the author of "Rain or Shine".

Set at the very epicentre of the self-obsessed 1970s, when everyone talks (without ever saying anything) in the psychobabble of faddish self-help manuals, it's the most sophisticated, liberated, high energy, naturally organic and hilarious adult soap opera ever!
