...strikers, many university classroom buildings were almost empty, but students and teachers convened on campus lawns or in private apartments to resume their work. One art-history instructor had his class meet him, appropriately, at the Metropolitan Museum of Art; a class in Oriental civilization gathered at the New Moon Inn, a Chinese restaurant. Leaders of the strike boasted that all courses held outside of university buildings were really "liberation classes"-and issued daily mimeographed listings of time and location for such courses as "liberated French" and "liberated genetics...

The Ultimate Spinach mind food includes Sacrifice of the Moon, an instrumental that includes gentle wood flute and guitar interplays; Hip Death Goddess, with cool, detached vocals plus many minutes of good heavy electric instrumental; Ego Trip and Funny Freak Parade, like all the other songs, rich in imagery and imagination...

"Duncan Grant is the full moon of heaven," he wrote to Maynard Keynes, who was one of his earliest friends and confidants. In fact, Keynes was something more. Holroyd discloses that like Strachey, Keynes was a homosexual and a frequent rival for the affections of winsome young men; it was a proclivity that did not affect...
