Bob & Janis

A journey through the last great dream of freedom, where love, music and rebellion shaped a generation.

Author: Joan Mundet

Synopsis:

A the end of the 1960s, Bob leaves everything behind in search of freedom, music and a different way of life. In Amsterdam he meets Hildur, a young woman who reinvents herself as Janis after attending a Janis Joplin concert. Together they embark on a transformative journey through Amsterdam, Paris and Francoist Spain, ending in the legendary hippie enclave of Formentera in the summer of 1969.

Half a century later, Janis returns carrying the diary of that unforgettable summer, reopening memories of a generation that believed it could change the world. Blending romance, road movie and historical fiction, Bob & Janis is both a nostalgic coming-of-age story and a heartfelt tribute to the ideals of peace, love and freedom that defined an era.
