    Last Go Round Item KK01 By ken kesey with ken Babbs. 1994, hardback, signedby ken kesey, ken's latest novel. Item KK03 Forward by ken kesey.  
    http://www.key-z.com/books.html
    
    Extractions: 1994, hardback, signed by Ken Kesey , Ken's latest novel. It was around a sagebrush campfire in eastern Oregon that Ken first heard the tale from his father-about the legendary "last go round" that took place at the Pendleton, Oregon, Round Up in 1911. Hundreds of riders were competing for the first World All Around Champion Cowboy Title, but it was one special trio of buckeroos that provided the drama. When the dust cleared, everyone knew they'd witnessed something extraordinary. Includes sixteen pages of rare Round Up photographs. Over the past 25 years Ken has written many shorter pieces, but only now brings his considerable powers once again to bear on a full scale undertaking. Sailor Song is a unique and powerful novel about America. Set in the near future, the story takes us to the Alaskan village of Kuinak, a rundown fishing community of DEAPS (Descendants of Early Aboriginal Peoples) and lower-48 refugees perched on the Western edge of history. It's a scene rich with characters. Into their peculiar midst sails a mighty ship of last hopes loaded to the gunwales with a big bucks Hollywood film company. This famous studio/yacht has come north to film a classic children's book, The Sea Lion. Sailor Song is an epic novel that revolves around the question, "Does love make any sense at the end of the world?" It's about things that endure and come around again - back at you and back to you.

    Extractions: September 17, 1935 - November 10, 2001 We all mourn the loss of "the Chief," but we remember all he has done in his wonderful life. The following quote from his close friend Ken Babbs was taken from IntrepidTrips.com "Kesey's belly was hurting and the docs did a scan and found a black spot on his liver. It was cancerous but encapsulated which meant there was no cancer anywhere else. They decided to cut it out and the surgery went okay. He had sixty percent of his liver left to carry the load but in one of those dirty tricks the body can play on you everything else went to hell and this morning at 3:45 AM his heart stopped beating. A great good friend and great husband and father and grand dad, he will be sorely missed but if there is one thing he would want us to do it would be to carry on his life's work. Namely to treat others with kindness and if anyone does you dirt forgive that person right away. This goes beyond the art, the writing, the performances, even the bus. Right down to the bone."

24. Psychedelic 60s: Ken Kesey & The Merry Pranksters
    IN 1959, ken kesey, a graduate student in creative writing at Stanford University,volunteered to take part in a government drug research program at Menlo Park  
    http://www.lib.virginia.edu/speccol/exhibits/sixties/kesey.html
    
    Extractions: Ken Kesey ONE FLEW OVER The Cuckoo's Nest was an immediate critical and commercial success. It was read as a compelling cautionary tale that viewed society, represented by Big Nurse, as a cold, formidable negation of all that is free, lusty and nonconformist. McMurphy, a malingerer from a penal work farm, tries to rekindle a spark of life among his fellow patients, and is thwarted at each step by the cold, calculating Nurse Ratched, who ultimately curtails McMurphy's free wheeling ways by subjecting him to a lobotomy. From this book, Kesey gained the notoriety and the income necessary to draw together his motley band of Merry Pranksters, who through their many antics and travels, set the stage for the Psychedelic Era that was to follow. A critically acclaimed novel that is still taught at universities today, One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest remains Ken Kesey's most popular work. Can You Pass the Acid Test? WITH THE COMMERCIAL success of One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest, Kesey bought property in La Honda and moved his wife and children and assorted Merry Pranksters to the mountains outside of San Francisco. There they began throwing parties Kesey called Acid Tests, where revelers would ingest LSD, sometimes without their knowledge, and attempt to survive the often harrowing night. Kesey believed that one's personal fears should be confronted under the influence of hallucinogenic drugs. The surrounding woods, with trees painted day-glo colors, dissonant music blasting from hidden speakers, and the very odd invited guests­including members of the Hell's Angels­made the parties an experience that not all endured without physical and psychological consequences. Kesey constantly pushed the limits with his own experimentations and eventually moved the Acid Tests into public places such as the Longshoreman's Hall, Muir Beach, or musical events at Bill Graham's Fillmore West.

    Extractions: Prankster History Project This is a site dedicated to collecting the memories and stories of anyone whose lives have been touched by Ken Kesey and the Merry Pranksters. Tom Wolfe's The Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test , glorious as it is, mostly tells the story from the Prankster's perspective (usually Sandy's), but we rarely hear the voices of Acid Test participants, early Deadheads, lesser-known Pranksters, and the countless others who played a part and whose stories are missing from the history books. In the grand, interactive tradition of the Acid Tests, this site wants to hear from all those lost voices and add them to the cacophony of Prankster history. Click here to enter the site.
