Creators: Liked One of the most essential works on the 1960s counterculture, Tom Wolfe's The Electric Kool-Aid Test is the seminal work on the hippie culture, a report on what it was like to follow along with Ken Kesey and the Merry Pranksters as they launched out on the "Transcontinental Bus Tour" from the West Coast to New York, all the while introducing acid (then legal) to hundreds of like-minded folks, staging impromptu jam sessions, dodging the Feds, and meeting some of the most revolutionary figures of the day.
LovedAlthough The Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test is one of the weirdest and most rip-roaring books. It's a It's just a full-on trip, man. It's just like this hallucinogenic whirlwind pinwheeling wild ride through, you know, a kind of high-water mark of American counterculture.
LikedIf you really want to know what that era in the United States was like, what Ken Keezy was doing behind the scenes, this mind that was able to captivate a generation with his fiction writing, what he was really like in real life is a wild, treacherous, and drugfueled tale.
