Book synopsis:Orgy at Eight is about two couples throwing a prank theme party in 1967. What starts out as a marriage encounter group spoof quickly turns into a night of debauchery-with the help of a hallucinogenic-spiked punch. It is a wild night which will have far-reaching implications for everyone in attendance. Autobiography: This is 94-year-old Carolyn Fried's fourth book. She started out as a school teacher, then became a successful real-estate investor. She chairs the Beverly Hills Theatre Guild and is politically active in progressive causes. Carolyn was known for hosting unusual dinner events which led to her first book, 12 Great Parties. Later in life, she returned to writing with a vengeance. Her philosophy is simple: "The brain is a muscle-if you don't use it, it will atrophy."
