Description du livre Soft cover. Etat : Fine. Second edition with new introduction. Bright, clean & tight copy, unmarked & unread in Fine condition. "During the 1960s, says Morris Dickstein, America seemed to be at the gates of Eden--verging on a new way of experiencing life, art, and culture. In this groundbreaking book he discusses how we reached the gates and why, in the end, they remained closed. Beginning with Allen Ginsberg and the Beat poets of the late 1950s, Dickstein traces the rise of a new sensibility in American thought, writing, and music through lively and incisive analyses of such sixties icons as Kurt Vonnegut Jr., Bob Dylan, Norman Mailer, Ralph Ellison, Joseph Heller, Paul Goodman, Norman O. Brown, and the Rolling Stones. In a new introduction, he reassesses the period's achievements and failures from the vantage point of the late 1980s. The sixties continue to fascinate Americans and influence our politics and culture, and GATES OF EDEN continues to offer perhaps the best single account of this turning point in American history." [publisher copy] "Stands a very good chance of remaining a permanent book of reference on the period. It is a vivacious, highly original work, combining literary criticism, political commentary and candid personal testimony."--Walter Clemons, Newsweek. "Dickstein has excellent literary judgement. He makes it clear that we learn more about the period by taking it seriously than by writing it off as the triumph of the 'trendy'."--Christopher Lasch, The New York Times Book Review. Bright & tight paperback w/brilliant corners & crisp edges, a square binding w/no creases in spine & some slight uniform toning on pages. N� de r�f. du vendeur RUB1826
