description: Lynn Rogers' Born in Berkeley is a 60s coming-of-age story as related to Colly who is determined from an early age .to live life on her own terms. Colly's is a world made vital, personal and real by Rogers' beautifully expressed voice of experience. Against a background of receding Beat creativity and rising 60s idealism, the book is poignant with the pain of rejection, the tentative search for love and acceptance. I was drawn by the lovely and almost hypnotic poetry of words and sensations presented here, and made to wonder what I might have missed in that very important time.Dale Aycock, Author--Starspinner 1 &amp; 2, StardrifterGrowing up around Palo Alto in the 60s.
