LaFontaine, Charles

Charles Sevigny LaFontaine was a twenty-two-year-old traveling musician, back from World War II in 1947, when he decided to see the country he had fought for. He first arrived in Germaine in June of that year, too low on funds to make it to San Francisco, his destination. He checked into the Restin’ Easy motel with the aim of playing his sax in local clubs to earn a little money.

Subject Minus

Subject Minus is the enigmatic leader of the Reject Army of Poetry (RAP), one of several anarchist and socialist organizations that collaborate on EcoSurvival Village. The RAP is loosely patterned on the rebels in southern Mexico known as the Zapatistas. They live in the mountains near Dead Mule Butte and the old Van Bibber mill. They call their village of cob houses, The Compound.
