Ibiza Blues is a novel set in the 1970s almost entirely in Europe, and largely on the island of Ibiza. The protagonist, Jake, is a young American hippie/writer who has decided to follow in the footsteps of his literary heroes and travel beyond his comfort zone in order to gain experiences worth writing about. In the course of his travels, mostly on a shoestring budget, he ends up relying largely on his instincts, newfound friends and lovers, unexpected spiritual advisors, and an abiding faith in the necessity of his 'journey' in order to carve out his own adventurous path in life. Having left his girlfriend back in the States, Jake discovers that the love he left behind, in one form or another, is ultimately what he's been seeking in life.

Praise for this book

Ibiza Blues is a wonderful book. Beautifully written. Luxuriously drawn characters, hipster atmosphere, relentless spirit of adventure. I enjoyed it-a lot!

- Steve Ornstein, Ph.D., author of Unstuck

Ibiza Blues is an entertaining, well-written glimpse into the adventures of a 1970's era seeker. Unwilling to join the rat-race, reluctant to make long-term commitments, and short on cash, he travels across Europe in search of meaning . . . and self-understanding.

- John Wythe White, author of High and Beautiful Wave

Ibiza Blues takes me on a wonderful journey back to my childhood on Ibiza. With the always valid message that it's worth being brave, and letting life carry you. Even if you don't have a penny left in your pocket, you will be rewarded with the gifts of life-Love, laughter, and Adventure!

- Natascha Wolf, Berlin, Germany

Kudos for Ibiza Blues! Refreshingly honest and raw and a compelling read into why we must go our own way, take the risks and suffer the consequences. This is wonderfully written and quite an enjoyable ride.
