Soft cover. Zustand: Very Good. No Jacket. Special Edition. Advance Reading Copy of Uncorrected Proof in paperback. "From the New York City of Kline and de Kooning to the jazz era of New Orleans's French Quarter to Ken Kesey's psychedelic California, PRIME GREEN explores the 1960s in all its weird, innocent, fascinating glory. An account framed by two wars, it begins with Robert Stone's last year in the Navy, when he took part in an Antarctic expedition navigating the globe, and ends in Vietnam, where he was a correspondent in the days following the invasion of Laos. Told in scintillating detail, PRIME GREEN zips from coast to coast, from days spent in the raucous offices of Manhattan tabloids to the breathtaking beaches of Mexico, and merry times aboard the bus with Kesey and the Pranksters."[]"Opening the trunk on the American Sixties might seem at first to be a fearsome, even a rueful, undertaking. However, the incomparable novelist Robert Stone is obviously destiny's choice for the role of narrator-guide. Stone has all the writerly refinements. He writes with great clarity, felicity, and with perfect pitch. But more significantly he writes with unnostalgic compassion and intelligence for that tumultuous time, now surprisingly low on our horizon, but that by some necromancy of history has presented us with all we see around us today."---Richard Ford. Bright, clean & tight copy, unread, in Very Good condition, w/sharp corners & crisp edges, a square binding (w/one loose page) w/no creases in spine & no jacket as issued. …

Robert Anthony Stone (August 21, 1937 - January 10, 2015) was an American novelist, journalist, and college professor. He was five times a finalist for the National Book Award for Fiction, which he did receive in 1975 for his novel Dog Soldiers. Time magazine included this novel in its list 100 Best English-language Novels from 1923 to 2005. Stone was also twice a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize and once for the PEN/Faulkner Award. A memoir of America's most turbulent, whimsical decade, in the words of the man who experienced it all. From the New York City of Kline and De Kooning to the jazz era of New Orleans's French Quarter to Ken Kesey's psychedelic California, Prime Green explores the 1960s in all its weird, innocent, fascinating glory. An account framed by two wars, it begins with Robert Stone's last year in the Navy, when he took part in an Antarctic expedition navigating the globe, and ends in Vietnam, where he was a correspondent in the days following the invasion of Laos. Told in scintillating detail, Prime Green zips from coast to coast, from days spent in the raucous offices of Manhattan tabloids to the breathtaking beaches of Mexico, and merry times aboard the bus with Kesey and the Pranksters. Building on personal vignettes from Stone's travels across America, this powerful memoir offers the legendary novelist's inside perspective on a time many understand only peripherally. These accounts of the 1960s are riveting not only because Stone is a master storyteller but because he was there, in the thick of it, through all the wild times. From these incredible experiences, Prime Green forges a moving and adventurous portrait of a unique moment in American history. First Edition [Stated], First Printing [Stated].
