Sleeping Where I Fall

In his energetic, funny, and intelligent memoir, Peter Coyote relives his fifteen—year ride through the heart of the counterculture-a journey that took him from the quiet rooms of privilege as the son of an East Coast stockbroker to the riotous life of political street theater and the self—imposed poverty of the West Coast communal movement known as The Diggers. With this innovative collective of artist—anarchists who had assumed as their task nothing less than the re—creation of the nation's political and social soul, Coyote and his companions soon became power players.
