His most recent novel is Summer of '69
Booklist review: "Drugs, sex, and rock 'n' roll, those hallmarks of the summer of 1969, are all here, but there's so much more. In this loosely autobiographical novel, Strasser introduces 18-year-old Lucas, who is bright and sensitive but also a screw up…. The picture painted of the Woodstock music festival shows the dark side of peace and love, and the prevalence of drugs is on almost every page…The best part of the book, however, is the one that transcends eras: Lucas' introspection as he contemplates his place in the world."
Kirkus review: "Strasser perfectly captures the golden haze of youth and -

J’ai commencé à dévorer les livres dès que j’ai su lire. La Bibliothèque rose, la Bibliothèque verte, puis de nombreux romans qui me faisaient vivre mille et une vies.
J’avais huit ans quand j’ai écrit mon premier roman sur un cahier de brouillon vert au dos duquel figuraient des tables de multiplication. Il parlait d’amour, de mer et d’un soleil qui mettait trente pages à se coucher.
En sixième, je répondais « Écrire des livres » à la question « Que voulez-vous faire plus tard ? » sur les fiches que l’on remplissait en début d’année. Pas à chaque fois, parce qu’il m’est aussi arrivé de vouloir être styliste. Ça n’a pas duré longtemps : tout le monde v -
