Wasted Year: The Last Hippies of Ole Miss
Meet Daniel Medway, rumored to be the most dangerous student on the Ole Miss campus . It’s August 1971, and Daniel is about to embark on the wildest year of his life, in the company of his friends Garrett, Clamor, Dr. Goodleigh and a cast of unforgettable characters that includes a mad Chinese chef, a sometimes invisible dog, an ex-KGB agent, and a kindly stranger who might just be Elvis in disguise.
“This is a laugh-out-loud funny novel . . . a generous epic (two to three times the size of a typical novel) revolving around a college town in the early '70s, as much of the hippie movement did at the time.” Jnana Hodson – Goodreads
Words on the Moon (poems)
The soul is a stick.
Throw it spinning across the sky
as high or as far
as you like,
it always falls to earth
where it belongs.
A friend waits there
to fetch it back to you.
~from “Dog Cremated While Its Master Is Buried in Pet Cemetery”
“Gray pays fervent heed to the worlds we inhabit and the worlds that dwell in us. A marking of significant time, a quest for nothing short of love, this is an eminently satisfying book of poems.” ~ David Citino, author of The House of Memory
