Hairy Hippie

The "summer of love" is a time of idealistic freedom and experimentation for Emma, her cousin Megan, and the young people of Pike Creek. While her brother Eric's band practices in what Uncle Pat has dubbed the Hippie House, the girls suntan on their small lake and hitchhike into town to hang around the Drop-In Center. They find the growing crowd of long-haired musicians and hangers-on that begin to show up at the farm both enticing and a bit scary. The beginning of the school year brings excitement and change for Emma. But when eighteen-year-old Katie Russell disappears, her teenage sense of immortality is suddenly shattered. A month later, when Eric discovers Katie's body in the Hippie House, the entire community is thrown into turmoil. There are plenty of suspects in the brutal murder, but for months the case remains unsolved. And while others speculate, Eric agonizes that the killer may have been one of the many drifters who passed through the Hippie House during the summer.

Suddenly, the hippie culture and flower power is Hot Nostalgia. This is because the 60s -- the music, the clothes, political and sexual idealism, etcetera -- were a watershed in the way America saw itself. Hippie culture was at the very zenith of that watershed, and Taos was its beating heart, a Mecca which beckoned young pilgrims from all over the country. This is a scrapbook of stories of things people did and why they did them (including then-and-now photographs with up-to-date biographies). These oral histories talk about communes and free love, they talk about giving natural birth in a half-built adobe house, they talk about climbing Mt. Wheeler high on LSD, they talk about raising children, they talk about Buddhism versus eating peyote, they talk about money and food stamps, they talk about regret and what they've learned. Besides the oral histories and her own personal accounts, Iris has collected wonderful photographs, newspaper articles, and other memorabilia that give the reader a vision of the passionate life of hippies during the glory days of the Age of Aquarius.
