Donna F. Brown's
takes you on a historical journey through the turbulent sixties in Chicago, the music, the drugs, as well as a personal journey through her darkest and brightest moments. From first co-founding the Chicago based rock group, Medusa, and waiting 40 years for the release of their LP,
Medusa finally secured a place in music history. The second incarnation of Medusa1975 produced the new album
, and led to several tours.
At the heart of
is a story of resilience and survival. With adept control of the pen, Donna F. Brown shares intimate details of a 40-year journey in a memoir that records important events of the '60s she experienced, including the 1968 Democratic Convention riots in Lincoln Park in Chicago, in which she saw friends and strangers alike, lying beaten and bloody. She takes the reader through her experiences with drugs, the rock scene in Chicago in the 1970s, run-ins with authority, her difficult home life, a nursing career, her training as a mime with Marcel Marceau, and ultimately a return to Medusa and the music where it all started.
may make you laugh or make you cry, but you will most likely find, in Donna's story, deep connections to your own.
