Jean "Stevie" Stevenson, the indomitable heroine of "Coffee Will Make You Black," is back — somewhat older and wiser, with some experience and a college degree — diving headfirst into the hot tub, free love, yoga, and vegetarian lifestyle of 1970s San Francisco. In this liberating new world of raised consciousness, mind-expanding, and disco-dancing, a soul sister with passion and daring has room to experiment with life and love to find out who she "really" is.
