- Summary
- What would you do if your country was on the wrong side of history? Would you leave if you had the chance? Life After America is an upbeat memoir by veteran crime novelist Joseph Mark Glazner about his adventures as a young American, who left the US for Canada during the wild and crazy 1960s, reinvented himself as a pulp writer and journalist, and helped John Lennon kick-start his "War is Over" campaign. Glazner recounts with dark humor and the eye of a thriller writer his nearly bungled escape from the US, the pitfalls of love in an era of sexual revolution, fly-by-night jobs as a new immigrant, and a stint writing tabloid stories about UFOs that killed people and sheep. --
