National Bestseller"e;A landmark and long-overdue cultural history."e; VogueThe stylish, wild story of the marriage of Dennis Hopper and Brooke Haywarda tale of love, art, Hollywood, and heartbreak Those years in the sixties when I was married to Dennis were the most wonderful and awful of my life. Brooke HaywardLos Angeles in the 1960s: riots in Watts and on the Sunset Strip, wild weekends in Malibu, late nights at The Daisy discotheque, openings at the Ferus Gallery, and the convergence of pop art, rock and roll, and the New Hollywood. At the center of it all, one inspired, improbable, and highly combustible coupleDennis Hopper and Brooke Haywardlived out the emblematic love story of 60s L.A.The home these two glamorous young actors created for themselves and their family at 1712 North Crescent Heights Boulevard in the Hollywood Hills became the eras unofficial living room, a kaleidoscopic realmfurnished like an amusement park, Andy Warhol saidthat made an impact on anyone who ever stepped into it. Hopper and Hayward, vanguard collectors of contemporary art, packed the place with pop masterpieces by the likes of Roy Lichtenstein, Ed Ruscha, and Warhol, and welcomed a whos who of visitors, from Jane Fonda to Jasper Johns, Joan Didion to Tina Turner, Hells Angels to Black Panthers. In this house, everything that defined the 1960s went down: the fun, the decadence, the radical politics, and, ultimately, the danger and instability that Hopper explored in the project that made his career, became the cinematic symbol of the period, and blew their union apartEasy Rider.Everybody Thought We Were Crazy is at once a fascinating account of the Hopper and Hayward union and a deeply researched, panoramic cultural history. Its the intimate saga of one couple whose own rise and fallfrom youthful creative flowering to disorder and chaosmirrors the very shape of the decade.
