In Patsy's book Arms Wide Open, she recounts her initial experiences as a midwife coinciding with her years of "hippie living" in the 1970's. "Patricia Harman's unflinching honesty and soaring poetry unfold the dream and the reality of the rurual communes, political activism, and urban counter-culture in the 1970's, and what we, the veterans of that particular era of bohemian life, have become today. She weaves in the telling details--the songs we sang, the clothes we wore, the glories of nature we witnessed, and, most especially, the causes for which we organized and the austerities we endured willingly, for the sake of the earth and all her children." Alicia Bay Laurel, author and illustrator of "Living on the Earth."
Music- "Many are the Hearts that are Weary" composed and performed by Janie Rezner, from her CD "Oquawka Speaks the Words and Music of Mother God." www.janierezner.com
