A review by sam_the_bibliophile
Hippie by Paulo Coelho
4.0
A great autobiography. This book is based on the real events that took place in Coelho’s life and it has brought so much more new information in to light.
The book centers around a trip on the Magic Bus with Coelho and Karla traveling with several other people from Amsterdam to Nepal during the ”hippie” era. With their free love, peace signs, hippie clothes, and flowers in their hair, this book was philosophical and grounded in reality. Though with a sad ending, I was hooked from start to end. The only bit I would have been content with not having in the book was if the other storylines were not there since they didn't have much importance to the plot.
All in all, this was a good book, and at times it made me wish that I was born in the era of the hippeies.
