Book Description:
"Vida was their star--the beautiful, charismatic radical from the pages of LIFE magazine--the symbol of the passionate rebellion of the sixties. Now, ten years later, the shouting is over, but Vida is still on the run. Staying in Network hideouts, traveling disguised, fearing every glance, she finds her best protection is her distrust of everyone--a lesson learned from past treacheries. And now, knowing the dangers, she finds herself warming again toward a man, an outcast ten years younger than herself."
from an Amazon.com review:
" . . . this book is also a page turner.
Get this book now while its available at reduced prices for used or remaindered books, pennies for page as I did. When young people, working people, women who want freedom, people who want to stop billionaire sponsored wars rise again and fight, this book will be republished, cherished, understood anew. That time is not going to be long.
I am glad I have my Vida to read. Hope you can get 21 years out of your copy!"

Sending to froggirlwendy as part of one of my "clear some space" 3kg bag RABCKs.
Part of a very well packed 3kg satchel of books from crimson-tide who is far too generous :o) This one spiked my curiousity so will keep on my TBR pile for a while and hopefully get to read it. Thanks so much again :o)
