"Be Not Content is a coming-of-age novel set in San Jose, California, in the mid 1960s-describing William Craddock's experiences as a young acid-head. This is a hip, profound, and wonderfully-written book, a unique chronicle of the earliest days of the great psychedelic upheaval. Be Not Content is filled with warmth and empathy, tragic at times, and very funny in spots, a wastrel masterpiece where laughter plays counterpoint against the oboes of doom."--Publisher's description.
