In this novel, the pothead lifestyle is elevated from sloth to a form of renunciation. The story follows Jorge Ruiz' Acidhead sometime after coming home from Iraq, as he drifts through simple jobs and music festivals. As America slides into harsh times, he increasingly embraces a lifestyle of minimalism, humor and communion, which he comes to appreciate as a form of human redemption. The hallucinogen is culted as a sort of secular sacrament in sometimes hilarious ways throughout this piece of subversive writing.
