He has created a character who navigates the past while he previews the future.

“A story with real pathos. Martin Perlich is a true original.” --Sandra Tsing Loh
“For anyone who survived the 70s, or is curious about them, THE WILD TIMES is the perfect guide book. Writing in the jingle-jangle urgency of the decade, Martin Perlich has unerringly captured the birds-in-a-storm whimsy of a journey navigated on too many drugs and too little sense of direction but precisely the ideal combination of curiosity and lust, abandon and longing. What a ride the ‘70s were and what a funny, sad and compelling chronicle this novel is.” -- Ernest Thompson, author of ON GOLDEN POND and l969
