Sara San Angelo's Drift is an unforgettable journey through one girl's transition from the safety of modern society to the uncertainty of an invisible counter-culture and the people and lessons that change her life.
In the vein of the Beat writers and poets, Drift asks, "What is the meaning of life in a world where there is no longer an 'individual' but a 'consumer'." "What does it mean to be truly free?" Drift is a journey which shatters some of the fundamentally held mores of our time and will appeal to anyone who questions the direction of their path.
Carrie thought her future was clear. She graduated college, got a good job, landed the rock star boyfriend and was just waiting for the little cottage with the white picket fence. But as time wore on, a drudging dissolution started to appear through the cracks of her dreams. Nothing in her life was as it seemed.
Spiraling into despair, Carrie decided to end it all on a desolate span of railroad tracks. As she struggled to muster the courage, a mysterious figure appeared on the horizon and convinced her to let everything go, and just drift.
Author Sara San Angelo gleans from her experiences as a fellow traveler to bring to the masses a brave alternative to a despondent world.
