The Genesis Generation is a novel about a small band of friends who are part of a world wide psychedelic community loosely calling itself "the Tribe". Like many other forward-thinking people today, they are struggling to make the transition from cubicle-working consumers into beings who are more truly human.
The story that Lorenzo weaves is the tale of a young man caught between two worlds, the world of corporate America and that of people with a more psychedelic (soul manifesting) point of view. As things unfold, we experience his transformation from being a 29 year old “yuppie-geek” into a valuable member of the Tribe. The story begins in Palenque, Mexico and moves through Texas, Amsterdam, Viet Nam, and even on to Burning Man before reaching a surprising climax. Eventually, the hero of the story must choose between living in the corporate world or living free. At least, that is what he thinks until events sweep him along in an unforeseen direction.

I
am 10 minutes from the very end...and stalling as I don't want it to
end!
This story is so wonderful in so many ways; I actually cried in parts of it (I don't want to say where for fear of spoiling it for others) and, of course, have had some good laughs and fascinating insights.
One
thing about reading "The Genesis Generation" for me is I think Lorenzo
did a wonderful job of capturing the community of the people he calls
the Tribe. |
