Summary
Set against the drug-induced backdrop of the 1970s, a powerful novel follows talented Gillian Brauer, a junior at Catamount College, who falls in love with the bohemian existence of rebellious professor Andre Harrow and his sculptress wife Dorcas, as she becomes addicted to their world and soon learns the true meaning of Dorcas's motto "We are beasts and this is our consolation."
