The Fountain Of Youth eBook

Strange things are happening in a small Australian town as the local theatre troupe prepares for their next performance. The Fountain of Youth is another riotous and rollicking novel from John Kinsella, and the third volume of his ongoing ‘Lucida’ cycle.

In the small wheat-belt towns of Western Australia, the locals are either benign or malicious, prophets or schemers, indifferent or intrusive. Among their ranks are vegan activists, paramilitary sects, doomsday preppers, thespians, playwrights, and of course, the odd extraterrestrial. These unlikely neighbors intersect at the straining joints of religion, faith, secularism, technology, and the pressure is starting to build.

The Fountain of Youth is a rare and remarkable book in which guerrilla environmentalists, hidden identities, mythological origins, and theoretical physics unfold in gorgeous, surreal waves of language.
