BEEP! Beyond
the Frogpond and Back
In his powerful first
novel, Stewart Parks introduces us to Bob Pilhaus, a radical,
24-year-old surfer/hippie/ intellectual, a southern California refugee
from the ‘60s, a lost soul, desperately searching for meaning
and
peace of mind in 1972. Stoned and alone on a train to Biarritz, hoping
for some soothing, autumn waves on the Bay of Biscay, he tries to
ingratiate himself with a beautiful young woman in the dining
car—a French-Canadian named Esmeralda. She turns out to be
far more than she appears, and Beep gets much more than he
bargained
for in the process.
 Parks
takes us on an unforgettable trip through a cosmic time-trap, a
surprising journey back in time, towards the ultimate answers BP seeks
to
the Really Big Questions regarding consciousness, truth, tube-riding,
and the nature of the universe....
