Description

Utopia Avenue is the strangest British band you've never heard of. Emerging from London's psychedelic scene in 1967 and fronted by folk singer Elf Holloway, blues bassist Dean Moss, Utopia Avenue embarked on a meteoric journey from the seedy clubs of Soho to a TV debut on Top of the Pops, the cusp of chart success, glory in Amsterdam, prison in Rome, and a fateful American sojourn in the Chelsea Hotel, Laurel Canyon, and San Francisco during the autumn of 1968. David Mitchell's kaleidoscopic novel tells the unexpurgated storyof Utopia Avenue's turbulent life and times: of fame's Faustian pact and stardom's wobbly ladder: of the families we choose and the ones we don't; of voices in the head and the truths and lies they whisper; of music, madness, and idealism. Can we really change the world, or does the world change us?
