Writer Reiss has clearly lived an interesting life, and he currently lives in Nyack, NY where he co-founded and runs a soup kitchen. One must wonder if his novel After Woodstock is at least semi-autobiographical, telling the tale as it does of two young men called Jack and Bryan who graduate high school in '69 and then see their summer climax with the Woodstock festival. The book details the impact that the legendary event would have on each of their lives, and their enduring friendship through letters as they take different paths. It’s deeply touching, and worthy of your time.
