Hippie

In the autumn of 1970, a young Paulo Coelho sets out on the hippie trail, dreaming of travel and freedom. Boarding the “Magic Bus” bound from Amsterdam to Kathmandu, he meets Karla, a Dutch woman in search of a companion for the journey of a lifetime. Together they cross a world of dreamers and seekers, in a luminous, largely autobiographical novel about love, youth and the quest for meaning.
