Outside voices : a memoir of the Berkeley Revolution
(Book)

"Losing her beloved father at age eleven, a child finds the strength to reinvent herself as a woman of influence and substance. Neglected by a grieving mother, she finds solace in poetry and art. A child of the sixties, Joan jumps headlong into the format of political activism and rock and roll. Upon landing in Berkeley, she is embraced by a community of artists who encourage her to find her voice"--Front jacket flap.
