Description

Explore the complex relationship between mobility and intoxication in this scholarly work from Routledge. This book examines how the concepts of travel and drug use shaped subjectivity in the years following the 1960s. By looking at the mid-twentieth-century shifts in how these two themes were imagined, the text offers a fresh perspective on British and North American reactions to the sixties counterculture. Through detailed readings of influential authors such as Aldous Huxley, William Burroughs, Alex Garland, Hunter S. Thompson, and Robert Sedlack, the author traces how these connected themes function within literary history. This volume is an essential resource for students and scholars interested in literary theory, twentieth-century movements, and the cultural history of the post-sixties era.
