«A la rica marihuana y otros sabores» is a collection of texts by Terry Southern, published by Editorial Anagrama in paperback (240 pages, in Spanish).
It brings together articles, short stories and interviews on drugs, music, US foreign policy, the CIA, journalism and conventional morality. With acerbic wit and irony, Southern portrays the sensibility of the sixties and his role as a pioneer of New Journalism in pieces such as «Bastoneando en Ole Miss».
It belongs to Anagrama's Compactos Collection (no. 118). Translated by Kosián Masoliver; original title: Red-Dirt Marijuana and Other Tastes.
For those interested in New Journalism, sixties counterculture and mordant satire.
Terry Southern was an American novelist, essayist, screenwriter, and university lecturer, noted for his distinctive satirical style. Part of the Paris postwar literary movement in the 1950s and a companion to Beat writers in Greenwich Village, Southern was also at the center of Swinging London in the 1960s and helped to change the style and substance of American films in the 1970s. He briefly wrote for Saturday Night Live in the 1980s.
