Softcover. SIGNED. In 1968, 19yr old Peter David Berger was found dead in the bedroom of a friend's house in Montreal. The police dismissed him as a hippie and his death was ruled an LSD-induced suicide. The author was 23 when her brother died, and she spent the next 27yrs. running from his ghost and attempting to exorcise it through her poetry and fiction. Then, in 1995, she suddenly stopped running, and decided to re-open her past's deepest, unhealed wound. She set out to uncover the truth about her brother - and about herself. A poignant testament to love, obsession, and liberation. It is also a cautionary tale, a look back at the 1960s, when so many of a generation's best and brightest lost their way in the Garden. 254pp. 8vo. softcover. From the library of true crime writer, Wilfred Gregg, with his personal b/plate. Vg+ with no creasing to covers. PRESENTATION COPY INSCRIBED AND SIGNED BY THE AUTHOR.
