A Man Called Oval

A tale of adventure in the latter days of hippie America, this is the story of Oval Rubber, a spiritual seeker who sets out to preach for a living and decides to take Golly, an obscure prophet from the time of Jesus, as his inspiration. Adopting Golly's twin commandments making Surprise and Doubt a way of life, he and his new wife, Ethyl, head off into the heart of America in a 1963 VW bus, on a road trip rivaling that of the Merry Pranksters for counter-cultural zaniness and freewheeling adventures.
