In the late 1960's and early 70's hippies in flowered buses and VW vans rolled into Taos, mostly city kids trying to \"get back to the garden.\" The dismayed locals called it \"the hippie invasion.\"This is the story of two writers who found each other in the maelstrom of the commune days. Jim Levy was breaking up with his wife Deirdre, who later became Pema Ch dr n, a Buddhist nun whose books became bestsellers. Phaedra Greenwood discovered she was pregnant while living in a tool shed at forty below zero. Eventually, Jim and Phaedra settled down in an old adobe outside a small Hispanic village to raise a family. These were the golden days, but the times were a-changing. The women's movement swept in; Three Mile Island sparked No Nukes demonstrations and Watergate proved that you can't trust authority. It was time for Jim and Phaedra to test themselves in the world.A surprisingly honest and moving remembrance of the cultural upheavals in northern New Mexico in the 1970s.\" Bob Bishop and Bonnie Korman\"In Those Were the Days, two gifted and insightful writers reveal how, against all odds, they forge a loving relationship amidst the turbulent zeitgeist of Taos counterculture.\" Michelle Potter .\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jim Levy, Phaedra Greenwood\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 173379400X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781733794008\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Atalaya Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/05\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 338\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.95lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.51w x 0.76d","brand":"Jim Levy","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44127183241471,"sku":"9781733794008","price":12.75,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_fe5ec765-e485-4c19-bc58-f295f390857a.jpg?v=1687452289","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/those-were-the-days-jim-levy-9781733794008","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
