This seasoned journalist uses his own poems as "for instances" to chronicle fleeing the gold-rush frenzy of Silicon Valley for the artistic nourishment of Santa Fe, New Mexico. In the book's running commentary, Scofield, who made a living in Silicon Valley pumping out high-tech newsletters, writes, "Materialistic lust now dominates a once-beautiful setting. My wife and I worked 60 hours each per week for money, migraines and asthma attacks. The spiritual suffering was worse." Stretching fifty miles south of San Francisco, Silicon Valley generates more than a fourth of all economic growth in the United States. Stock options allow MBA graduates to become millionaires within a couple years. Psychiatrists and divorce lawyers are as prevalent as computer programmers and venture capitalists. Section headings summarize Scofield's take on all this: Love, Chasing Dollars, Coping, Getting Out of There, Skirting Death, Springtime in Santa Fe.
