In 1968, a collection of reportage appeared that was unlike anything seen before, remarkable in its literary aspiration and a milestone in what would become known as the New Journalism. A series of wickedly incisive portraits of California and its people—from fading stars to homicidal housewives to drug-addled hippies—
Slouching Towards Bethlehem
