Love Me Two Times: A Journey Back to the Late 1960s

"Perhaps one of the most faithful depictions of the sixties ever written." 

"A touching love story with unforgettable characters.  I felt as though I lost friends when the final page turned and the story ended."

"In Love Me Two Times, Philip Michaels vividly recreates the sights, sounds, epic events, and evolving counterculture that defined the turbulent, politically pivotal late sixties."

In 1968, Patrick Golden, a working-class University of Californian at Berkeley sophomore with Jewish and Irish-Catholic roots, manages to join Charles Comstock, his upper-class freshman-year roommate, at Harvard University for the summer. There, surrounded by Charles's peers--old-moneyed aristocrats and Mayflower descendants--Patrick begins an improbable romance with Morgan Thackeray, a stunningly beautiful and free-spirited coed from one of Boston's oldest, wealthiest, and most powerful families.  Their romance blossoms, despite her bigoted father's virulent objections and menacing threats, until it is ripped apart by a dark secret Morgan is compelled to hide.

Forty-one years later, Patrick, now wealthy and divorced, reconnects with Morgan in Boston at Charles Comstock's funeral, and his life is turned upside down when he learns her shocking secret.
