The characters quoted below lived together in the early 1970s on a small farm in the Massachusetts Berkshires. The differing reasons they spent part of their young adulthoods in the rural town of Dutton illustrate the fact that the counterculture was not one thing, but many. The Grove of Hollow Trees is the story of their experience while they were at North Road Farm and their perceptions as they reflected, forty years later.ElaineThe Resistance, the Movement, that was first and foremost to me. As for sex, drugs, and rock 'n roll-of course I liked all that like everybody else. Back-to-the-earth, environmentalism, Eastern religion, group process-all part of the cultural tidal wave. For me the big thing was the Movement-the left in general and especially the Women's Movement.
