BACK TO THE GARDEN is the the modern day fable of Tommy Redivo, the boy born on Max Yasgur's farm in Bethel, New York, on August 17, 1969; entering the living world just as Jimi Hendrix was beginning to play the opening strings of "The Star-Spangled Banner" on his electric guitar on the stage at Woodstock.

The novel tells the story of punk rock-Tom's conflicts with his hippie-Mom; his loving relationships with his younger half-sisters; the battles he has with his step-father for control of the family; the comedic episodes he shares with his friends, looking for a fun time on a Saturday night; and finally, his tumultuous rise to fame when he finally reveals himself to the world as the long lost Woodstock baby.
