The Dog Is Us

Series of short essays looking at the aging of the pot smoking 60's generation into the stagnant career and chaotic relationship lives of them now in the 80's. The so-called dog that was the focal point of the "high" 60's generation [the "dog" being an euphemism for what drew their foggy attention and kept it - such as clips from the Vietnam War, to a dog walking down the street] has reversed roles and now the recovering non-smokers realize it is now them, their careers and relationships that are now the epitome of absurdity. They are now "the dogs". Book is in good condition with slight marking on bottoms of pagination. Dust jacket is not price clipped but sports some staining and scuffing. 338 pages
