About this ebook
Campus life, college humor, some idiocy, sensibilities and sensitivity; elements of love - as well, and... a good laugh all through...
His is a hazy world, understandable only through his eyes. Fresh in the university, everything is bewildering, and he tries to make a bewildering sense of it; sorting the issues out into a set of a life system that is strange to us - certainly it must be strange to him too, though he tells it all in a way that is casual about it, as though nothing is amiss. But believe it or not, it does not appear strange to him. To him, it is only bewildering, extremely bewildering, as he strives to achieve the 'cool'.
"...Guilty of Innocence is in the order of Portnoy’s Complaint and Fools Paradise. Its aim: to give them people a chance to relive it again, to rejuvenate the past." But eventually, it is a mix-up against cigarettes, alcohol, marijuana and drugs, etc.
