Slow Explosions
Eau de Parfum
SYNOPSIS
In 1980, Gwen K. Vroomen quit her monotonous job, went to the local bar, and—at the bartender's urging—threw a dart at a world map pinned to the wall. She had never heard of Goa, but knew immediately she had to travel there. Three months later, she was celebrating the Hindu New Year in a tea garden high in the hills of Kerala, while fireworks exploded below her. She wrote of that night: "I was brought back to life by the colors, liberated by the pulsing unknown." Her self-described "journey out of darkness," peppered with unforgettable stories of night markets, river cruises, and exhilarating moped rides, inspired a generation of young Americans eager to rebel against the drudgery of everyday life.
