Volume Three of an odd boy tells of the foundation course at Farnham Art School from Õ70 to Õ72. At Hatch MillÑthe warren of wondersÑthe author steps out of time into a world of creative camaraderie where every meeting is a scene from a surrealist play. Õ72 marked the end of the Õ60s gestalt.
Before the final curtain call however, a tumult of bizarre scenes tumble across the panchromatic stage: strange liaisons with transient heroes and heroines of the lost time; the Farnham Blues Festival; and, Ôthe religion of ArtÕ entwined with burlesque love stories. He meets with Liverpool Poets Ð Adrian Henry and Roger McGough. Poetry and oil painting co-mingle with loves won and lost. He finds himselfÑfor a bare monthÑas a rising star on the British Blues scene Ð but with the death of Jimi Hendrix, itÕs the end of an era. He steps off the stage, takes to the road Ð and arrives, ironically, at the ever-familiar crossroads.
