college junior traversing a moral switchback in 1969 and
1970. He protests the Vietnam War while weighing patriotic
implications. He loses passion for education while remaining
on the Dean's List. He defies authority while conforming to
group pressure. He experiments with drugs while resisting
dependency. He devours philosophy and psychology to find
meaning in his raging confusion.

the price of his search for understanding. Conflict carves
rifts between Ryan, his peers and society. Conflict forces
him to make game-changing choices.

authorities.
