All about Kesey

Between 1974 and 1981 Ken Kesey self-published six issues of a literary magazine called <i>Spit in the Ocean</i>. After the revolutionary novelist's death in the fall of 2001 one of his closest friends acclaimed writer Ed McClanahan decided to carry out Kesey's vision and put together a final issue of <i>Spit</i> as a tribute to Kesey's genius and imperturbable spirit. Featuring contributions from cultural luminaries-including Robert Stone Paul Krassner Wendell Berry Bill Walton and Grateful Dead lyricists Robert Hunter and John Perry Barlow-as well as regular folk and several pieces by Kesey himself <i>Spit in the Ocean #7</i> is a loving and fitting homage to the gigantic and unique spirit of the merriest of the Merry Pranksters.
