At a dead end road on the coast of southern California lies the tiny town of Dickens Beach. Originally built as a movie set during the golden age of Hollywood, the few forgotten blocks of shops and quaint homes attract a cast of characters drawn to a place where times moves a little slower. Much like Cannery Row, the old hippies, beatniks, and bohemians who remain here share a sense of romantic non-conformity. Their lives mostly revolve around a bar at the end of the pier: Cafe Electrum. And any strangers coming to town immediately stand out. Yet, the citizens of Dickens Beach offer a warm cocktail-fueled welcome down at Cafe Electrum. Their stories compel the idea that innocence is still a possibility and a noble goal.John K Bucher Sr.’s latest exploration of life in the bars and beaches of California takes his original and sometimes gritty characters into new experiences and adventures.

Without such things we shall surely...
