The Sixties: Big Ideas, Small Books by Jenny Diski

4.0

Very interesting as a memoir and I really like seeing what someone who partook in counterculture felt about it's effectiveness as a movement in retrospect, but at times felt like it was trying to be MORE than a memoir. If that was the case then was a little too individualistic and generalised - would have preferred anecdotal evidence being further backed up with more hard data if an overarching historical narrative was the aim. Still gave a decent overall vibe of the attempts at revolution people were trying to push for during the sixties.
