Flipped Inside Out: A Life Unraveled and Reawakened in the Sixties - Paperback

by Zoë West (Author)

In the heart of the 1960s-a decade blazing with rebellion, revolution, and rock 'n' roll-one young woman dares to claim her independence.

When Kimmy hops a freight train up the California coast, she doesn't just leave behind her sheltered upbringing-she leaps into the pulse of a generation refusing to play by the rules. From peyote-fueled revelations in eucalyptus groves to run-ins with the Hells Angels, from border-town drug deals to the shadow of the Vietnam draft, she rides the rails of risk, youth, and awakening.

Told with fearless honesty and vivid detail, Flipped Inside Out captures the raw energy of a time when women were learning to define themselves, not by whom they married, but by whom they chose to become.

Naïve yet daring, Kimmy's journey mirrors a nation coming of age-wild, idealistic, and determined to live life out loud.
