Wolfe chronicles the adventures and experiences of Kesey and his band of "Merry Pranksters" as they travel the country in a bus, experimenting with psychedelic drugs in the hopes of obtaining intersubjectivity. An important chronicle of hippie culture. "Wolfe's style of journalism was something new, entirely his own, as young and exuberant and frenzied as the period he was depicting."
