The sixties didn't cook. They didn't bake. The sixties burned. White-hot. To kindle The Big Burn start with 3,000 hits of primo LSD, a coed's nude photo spread, a van-sized fertilizer bomb, and an out-of-control campus protest. Feed the flames with a cast of characters including the likes of Sunny the Candle Girl, Ricardo Hundred Eyes, the Queen of the Horse People, and Mickey the Knife. Add magic mushrooms, anarchists, Tampa gangsters, an FBI snitch, smugglers, Ocala cowboys, bullets and bayonets, dope dealers, Radical Takeover Students, and the National Guard, igniting this seminal, original, clever, ingenious, witty, unique and outrageous novel. The Big Burn is more glacial than The Big Chill. It ricochets more than The Big Bounce. It is more somnambulant than The Big Sleep. It's less long than The Big Short. It has more noir than The Big Noir and nearly as much dudeness as The Big Lebowski . The Big Burn is the most excellent, unvarnished, uncensored, unadulterated sixties tale ever told.
