In his book "The Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test," Tom Wolfe described the escapades of Kesey and the Pranksters as they drove around the country in their Day-Glo school bus. Terry Gross spoke with Ken Kesey in 1989, and asked him what he thought about Wolfe's book and how accurate it was.
In honor of the 50th anniversary of the release of Acid Test, Brooke speaks with Wolfe and writer River Donaghey about how acid shaped Kesey, spawned the book and de-normalized American conformity.
In 1964, Ken Kesey was working in a cabin in La Honda Creek, south of San Francisco. He and his wife, Faye, had moved there in 1963, after their house on Perry Lane, in Menlo Park, was torn down by developers. Perry Lane had a bohemian tradition that Kesey had advanced.
