Synopsis
Written in an urgent prose, Lay My Body on the Line zeroes in on the San Francisco State student protests of the 1960s as seen up close through the unblinking eyes of Roger Leon. Haunted by the suicide of a remarkable older brother whose memory he reveres, Roger, the all-American boy, is molded into a maverick. Packed with all the conflict, violence, eroticism, romance and raw play of ideas and passions that marked those turbulent years, this historically important novel brilliantly relates the story of one family in the heat of a seething American era that won't be soon forgotten.
