Ibiza Blues is a novel set in the 1970s almost entirely in Europe, and largely on the island of Ibiza. The protagonist, Jake, is a young American hippie/writer who has decided to follow in the footsteps of his literary heroes and travel beyond his comfort zone in order to gain experiences worth writing about. In the course of his travels, mostly on a shoestring budget, he ends up relying largely on his instincts, newfound friends and lovers, unexpected spiritual advisors, and an abiding faith in the necessity of his 'journey' in order to carve out his own adventurous path in life. Having left his girlfriend back in the States, Jake discovers that the love he left behind, in one form or another, is ultimately what he's been seeking in life.
