Riassunto

This is the story of Haight Ashbury in the years 1965-1970, the period "The Haight" emerged as the Mecca of the countercultural scene. The book begins with a cultural and visual history of this eight-block-wide area during the Beat period, which created the aesthetic for the psychedelic era that followed. It ends with the defining moment of the Altamont Festival. Between these signal events, Hoskyns celebrates and analyzes the place and the people that became the catalyst for the greatest social revolution of the 20th century. Barney Hoskyns is the author of "Say It One More Time for the Broken Hearted", "Montgomery Clift", "James Dean", "Across the Great Divide: The Band" and "Waiting for the Sun".
