Overview
In his first novel, Kick It Till It Breaks, veteran music journalist Ira Robbins satirizes the foibles and fanaticism of '60s radical activists.
Ydinia Ochreman is the leader of a terrorist organization; her travels and exploits drive the story, which involves a colorful cast of dubious characters, including the incompetent FBI agent on her trail, a pacifist protest leader with a complicated agenda, a cranky peg-legged bar owner, an Irish atheist on a quest to end organized religion and a lost soul from Memphis who ends up in London. The dark humor of Kick It Till It Breaks is tempered by abiding respect for those who sacrificed their lives to end the war in Viet Nam.
