| Description: |
Louis's poems are derived from recollections of his youth in the drug culture of San Francisco in the late 1960s. In this, his 12th book, he takes us back to the Haight during the Summer of Love and beyond on a tour of the wild side of youth, freedom and possibility. |
| Synopsis: |
Ancient Acid Flashes Back is the true story of one who was there---and remembers---through the cloying marijuana haze, around the jagged edges of L.A. cross tops and crystal cranks, on wild windowpane trips, in the sweetness and sweat of tangled young bodies, in the stench of stale vomit and fresh garbage, in the raucous laughter of desperation and fear. In this remarkable collection of poems, Adrian Louis, a member of the Paiute tribe, beams us back to the Haight during the Summer of Love and beyond on an inimitable tour of the wild side of youth, freedom, and possibility. |
