Description: Some decades are not simply a ten-year period but a cultural phase. The Sixties, it seems, started in 1963 with the assassination of JFK and lasted until 1975, when we withdrew our military forces from Saigon and quit the war we lost. The literature of the period reflects some of this upheaval-new themes, greater candor, many different kinds of experiments.
