A propos de cet article

First UK edition, first printing. Original red cloth lettered in gilt to the spine, in the Sarah Whitcombe designed dustwrapper. A very near fine copy, the binding square and firm, the contents bright and clean throughout. Minor bump to the lower edge of the spine. Complete with the bright, clean, neatly price-clipped dustwrapper with the vibrant colours completely unfaded. There is a touch of rubbing and laminate lift to edges and corners and minor crumpling to foot of spine. A sharp, attractive copy. The follow-up to 'The Kandy-Kolored Tangerine-Flake Streamline Baby' (1965), Wolfe's exuberant firsthand account of the novelist Ken Kesey and his band of Merry Pranksters as they travelled across America in a brightly painted bus is a classic of late twentieth-century American prose. "Tom Wolfe's 'The Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test' is a literary "gateway drug" a hallucination of a book that introduced me to a whole new way of looking at the world" (Jarvis Cocker).
