Description
Slouching Towards Bethlehem is a collection of essays that explores the mood of 1960s America and the Californian counterculture. First published in 1968, this work of nonfiction offers an incisive look at the era, drawing on the author's own experiences and observations. The essays, including the title piece, reflect the sense of disillusionment and social change that defined the time, as captured in W.B. Yeats' poem "The Second Coming".
