Synopsis "Mendocino Sinsemilla: A Marijuana Adventure from the Pygmy Forest (in English)"
No, this is not a how-to manual for growing one of the country's most lucrative crops. It's a novel. The story opens with the characters contemplating an adventure of cultivation and finishes off with a surprise ending guaranteed to make you laugh or cry, as the piper of Karmic debt collects payment. In between, there's a shipwreck, NASA in Texas, the frozen tundra of Alaska, love, betrayal and several types of greed. And, there is revenge, as well as a cast of colorful local characters from the iconic artist's village of Mendocino, California. Already famous as the backdrop for a score of movies including Summer of '42, East of Eden, The Russians are Coming, Cujo and the TV show Murder She Wrote, it is the perfect setting. It's a skip back in time with relevance now. It is even more relevant now that this 5th edition is published within a month of Cannabis being legalized in California. This new edition will only contribute to the novel's growing status, after 27 years as an under-ground classic. It embodies a youthful edge, energy and excitement and vivid descriptions of the old California coast and its fascinating history. This debut novel, woven as an indie love story chronicling the tale of a troubled journey of self-discovery, where greed and revenge warps the heart as well as the mind, is a fast-paced easy-read. It is an entertaining romp through northern California's 'Emerald Triangle' that will leave you longing for the 'elephant graveyard of hippies.'
