My Generation

This is the quintessential reference to the decade in which Australia shed the cultural cringe. The Sydney Push. The Iconic Yellow House. UBU Films. Oz Magazine. All were the launching pad for a new generation to challenge the conservative, stultified monoculture. Set in the context of the sexual revolution, Women's and Gay Liberation, Aboriginal Rights to Struggles, the anti-Vietnam war movement, hippies, drugs, psychedelic parties and Happenings, this book is Albie Thoms' definitive account of a major turning point in the cultural life of Australia.
