Synopsis

August 1969. Eighteen-year-old Daisy Turner and her brother Tim flee their volatile suburban world for Woodstock, stepping into a generation alive with music, protest, psychedelics, and the dream of freedom.

Leaving behind everything they have been told, the siblings journey from festival fields to a nuclear test site in the Rockies, from a commune in the high desert seeped in enchantment to the halls of Congress.

Set against the turbulent years of 1969–1970, Hippy Wars is an immersive historical novel about land and belonging, love and grief, and the private battles that run alongside the public ones.

From the ecstatic hope of the counterculture to a movement fighting for sacred land, identity and self-determination. Daisy must decide whether freedom is something you escape to—or something truly worth fighting for.

A propos du livre

À propos de l'auteur

Celia Persephone Gregory is an author and environmental artist whose work explores the intersection of ecology, spirituality, art, and human systems. She is the founder of The Marine Foundation, where she pioneered Living Sculptures in the Sea - an initiative combining sculpture, marine conservation, and community engagement to help restore underwater ecosystems.Originally trained in mosaic, her artistic journey evolved from intimate handcrafted works into large-scale architectural and site-specific creations shaped by mythology and a deep love of nature and beauty. Through her artisan weaving brand, Persephone Weave, she continues to explore the relationship between craft, creativity, and storytelling.Hippy Wars: Some Things Are Worth Fighting For draws on her deep connection to the landscapes of Aspen and Taos, and her long-standing interest in land and water stewardship, sovereignty, countercultural history, and the stories that shape collective memory. Guided by the belief that water is the great connector, her work explores how the health of the ocean cannot be separated from the mountains, rivers, and communities at their source.This is her first novel, and she plans to narrate the audiobook herself. She is currently at work on Llamada de las Ballenas, a memoir, and The Mound, a speculative historical novel reaching further back into humanity's relationship with land, memory, and myth.For more information, visit celiapersephonegregory.com
