When Peggy O'Toole departed for university in France, she had little idea of just how broadening traveling abroad in 1970 could be. However, many of her exploits were decidedly unfit to share with her Catholic mother. Instead, she employed an artful form of self-censure through cheery dispatches that were truthful in letter, though far from the truth! Then I Won't Seem So Far Away gathers the author's letters home, while offering annotations on what really transpired across the Atlantic in the freewheeling, hitchhiking culture of the early seventies. Leaving for France on the heels of her father's death, O'Toole was compelled to report only the top notes to her grieving mother. Her rousing aƩrogrammes made no mention of illicit drugs, heated liaisons, and more than a few sticky situations. With her wide-eyed, winsome correspondence, O'Toole paints a universal coming-of-age story, as well as an evocative portrait of an era now firmly fixed in the past. Those who recall the heady days of sex, drugs, and thumbing for rides are sure to enjoy a quick dip back in, while others who are curious about this strange, old world will be equally transfixed.
