Description
In this stunning first novel about passage and exile, from the Old World to the New, from awkward and tentative safety to the brutality of the Golden State's final beachhead, Les Plesko plumbs the depths of addiction, to narcotics and to memory. The Last Bongo Sunset is about inventing an identity in a world where all systems have failed, and a region where geography and the psyche are both being dismembered. The Last Bongo Sunset is a hip, hallucinatory journey of self-discovery set in the romantic underside of the American Dream: Venice, California, the last outpost of the sixties. It is what happens after Burroughs and the Beats. Plesko's vision is striking, bold, and indelible, a lyrical elegy to a recent but remote era.
