About the Book

What happens when a handful of unruly but authentic young people grow up absurd in 1950s America and rush headlong into the social and political upheavals of the 1960s? Through the hearts, minds, and actions of its young protagonists, Gates of Eden explores the excitement and urgency of the turbulent 60s and the struggles of an earlier generation that dared rage against the machine. From their scattered beginnings through a surge to resistance, Gates' complex, colorful characters invite us to join them as they transform 'hell no, we won't go' into a celebration of collective action, shared consciousness, and the realizations of their own fiercely personal dreams.

Review :
"War is not to be waged lightly. Gates of Eden is a novel set amongst the turmoil of the Vietnam War at home, as the Americans of the 1960s decry the unpopular war. Seven rebels unite with others who are dissatisfied with the government and begin to plot against it, daring possibly to go as far as rebellion. With a personal story among each of them, Gates of Eden is a fine novel of the period, very much recommended." -Midwest Book Review "Gates of Eden is no sentimental apologia for the Sixties. It's the real deal. Charlie Degelman was there, living his life for keeps, moving at the same breakneck pace as his characters. I know. I was there with him." - Peter Coyote, actor, author, Sleeping Where I Fall
