About

Joseph Juliana, nee Geoffrey Giuliano, nee Sripada Jaganntha Dasa, is a man of
many faces and adventures. A plumber's son from Western, New York now in his early
seventies, this transient iconic soul has experienced a wide swath of poverty,
riches, fame, anonymity, hedonism, and piety. At the same time 50% monk and 50%
monkey, Giuliano is best known as the author of a shelfful of books on the
Beatles and other rock icons, a well-known film actor, world traveler,
vegetarian activist, and very public devotee of Sri Krishna.

Here is his rags to riches then back to rags story as told by
himself, in an honest, enlightening, often shocking, sometimes humorous look
back on the first nineteen years of his often unlikely life and times. This
first installment of his autobiography focuses on the years 1953 to 1971 and
his trek from a small-town kid to an American 1960's hippie, to enthusiastic
young seeker of Lord Krishna in the early years of the Hare Krishna Movement.

While this is uniquely Geoffrey's story it is also a similar
tale to many who lived through the same era. If the child is the father of the
man then this collection of cutting memories explains a great deal about the
bold, creative character Giuliano later became. There are many words here -
many of them bad.
