Times were not the best nor the worst during the late 1950s when Felix Fist set out for California to attend college and fulfill the dream he had always thought impossible, the only one in his extended family to even aspire toward that auspicious goal. Facing challenges, many of his own making from a limited social and cultural background, Felix responds ingenuously as a participant observer in absorbing the unexpected emerging events of the turbulent 1960s and beyond.
