Technicolor Dreamin'
The 1960's Rainbow and Beyond
"Karen took off from Canada at age 19, hitchhiking with Jack Kerouac's "On the Road" under her arm.
Her memoir gives us a personal and critical history of the artist's counterculture, from beatnik San Francisco and New York, to hippie Paris and London, to feminist and fashion revolutions and the aftermath of it all. She partied with the famous: writers, artists, pop stars, and lived out the hottest moments in the 60's, including the barricades in Paris. The freshness of voice and delighted wonder that permeate the illuminating, often hilarious personal anecdotes is both irresistible and touching." - American Book Review
This book is featured being read by photographer Harold Chapman in Alan Govenar's upcoming feature film about the 60's Beat scene in Paris.
