Frank is sailing in the Caribbean when his boat suddenly begins taking on water. He makes it to a small island, hoping to find help. He finds unusual people who are friendly in their way—but who know things about him and his boat that they have no way of knowing. They tell Frank they can help. They offer him food, a place to sleep, and everything he needs. But getting answers to his questions proves more difficult. Frank wants only to get his boat back on the water and his freedom.

At eighteen, Ashe leaves home with no real plan—only the sense that staying would mean becoming someone he isn’t. It begins in Florida, then carries him across the country—and back again—from borrowed rooms to crash pads, and conversations about freedom that sound convincing until they don’t. He listens more than he speaks. He watches. He learns, slowly, what drifting costs. What begins as escape turns into something harder to name. Almost A Hippie is a quiet coming-of-age novel about movement, innocence, and the moment when freedom reveals what it expects in return.
