About this ebook

In Hippie Chick, a rebellious teenager finds her mother dead in
the bathroom. To save her from living alone with a difficult father, her
older sister sends her a one-way plane ticket to leave New Jersey.
Landing in San Francisco, she is thrust into a lifestyle way beyond what
she is ready for, and that challenges all previous notions of how one
behaves. It is 1963, and we are brought along as Ilene becomes immersed
in the unfolding of the sixties during the earliest days of sexual
freedom, psychedelic drugs, the jazz scene, and rock ’n’ roll. This is a
deeply personal story of how one young woman manages to survive and
even to thrive in the face of the whirlwind of experiences coming at
her. It is filled with a rich tapestry of moments that run the gamut
from the sublime to the ridiculous, and everything in between.

Author

Ilene English

Born in New Jersey as the youngest of six to a mother who was seriously ill, Ilene English became something of a lost child. In spite of this, she was a free spirit, her life fueled by an innate sense of optimism and determination. As a young woman, she became an early psychedelic pioneer, experimenting with LSD during a time when it was still legal and its effects were not yet fully comprehended. During the sixties, she, along with an entire community of fellow trippers, innocently thought that they could change the world into one that valued love over materialism through psychedelics. Today, years later, English is a licensed psychotherapist. Her life experience informs her work as a healer and a teacher. Hippie Chick is her first book.
