Confessions of a Raving Unconfined Nut: Misadventures in the Counter-Culture

New York: Simon and Schuster, 1993. First Edition. INSCRIBED by the author on the front flyleaf: "For Tony Bill / Enjoy your ass off... / Paul Krassner." Laid in is a typed letter signed by Krassner, on "The Realist" stationery, suggesting that Bill "might want to consider optioning the film rights to my book."

From the collection of Oscar-winning director-producer Tony Bill, whose work includes "The Sting" (1973), "Soldier in the Rain" (1963), "Shampoo" (1975), and "Five Corners" (1987).

Krassner began "The Realist" in 1958, a fore-running chronicle of the counterculture of the 1960s, written in his trademark personal journalism that blurred the lines between observer and participant.

Foxing to the top page edges, else Near Fine and unread in a Fine dust jacket. Typed letter 8 x 10 inches, folded horizontally, Near Fine.
