Notes:  Originally published in Great Britain in 2013 by Hamish Hamilton. Summary:  "For the first time, the enigma that is Iain Sinclair lands on American shores for his long-awaited engagement with the memory-filled landscapes of the American Beats and their fellow travelers. A book filled with bad journeys and fated decisions, American Smoke is an epic walk in the footsteps of Malcolm Lowry, Charles Olson, Jack Kerouac, William Burroughs, Gary Snyder, and others, heated by obsession (the Old West, volcanoes, Mexico) and enlivened by false memories, broken reports, and strange adventures. With American Smoke, Sinclair confirms his place as the most innovative of our chroniclers of the contemporary. Iain Sinclair is a British poet, essayist, novelist, nonfiction writer and filmmaker"--Provided by publisher. Genre:  Travel memoirs.
