Abstract
Review] Hippie Hippie Shake by Richard Neville
Highlights
The 60s, we are constantly told, were a time of rebellion, a time of change, a time of hope, or just a self-indulgent game of the "me" generation, depending on point of view
The 60s are currently decried by a younger generation, jealous of the alleged freedoms and actions of the baby boomers who have supposedly left them nothing to inherit but the wind
Revisionist writers go to extraordinary lengths to debunk the mythology of the 60s, but in essence they mainly rail against the late 60s early 70s
Summary
The 60s, we are constantly told, were a time of rebellion, a time of change, a time of hope, or just a self-indulgent game of the "me" generation, depending on point of view. Pete, [Review] Hippie Hippie Shake by Richard Neville, Counterculture Studies, 1(1), 2018, 98-116.
