John Hopkins brings back to life all the decadence and flamboyance of Tangier in the 1960s and 1970s.
Tangier in the 1960s and ’70s was a fabled place. This edge city, the ''Interzone'', became muse and escapist''s dream for artists, writers, millionaires and socialites, who wrote, painted, partied and experienced life with an intensity and freedom that they never could back home.
Into this louche and cosmopolitan world came John Hopkins, a young writer who became a part of the bohemian Tangier crowd with its core of Beats that included William Burroughs, Paul and Jane Bowles and Brion Gysin, as well as Tennessee Williams, Jean Genet, Yves Saint Laurent, Barbara Hutton and Malcolm Forbes. Those intoxicating decades – Tangier''s ''Golden Years'' – are long gone. Grand old houses that once sparkled with life are shuttered and dark and most of the eccentrics who once lived and loved in the city have died.
But here, in the pages of John Hopkins'' cult classic, all the decadence and flamboyance of those days is brought to life once more.
