Synopsis
The Great Classic of the Beat Generation Returns in all Its Trippy Brilliance; Back in print after many years, The Process has the dazzling impact of a drug-inspired dream, and since its publication more than thirty years ago, has established itself as a classic of 20th century modernism. Ulys O. Hanson is a black lecturer on the History of Slavery who finds himself in North Africa on a mysterious foundation grant that he never applied for. Setting off across the Sahara on what turns out to be a series of wild adventures, he first meets Hamid, a mad Moroccan who turns him on, takes him over and teaches him to pass as a Moor. Mya, the richest woman in creation, and her seventh husband, the hereditary Bishop of the Farout Islands, also cross his path with their plans to steal the Sahara and make the stoned professor the puppet Emperor of Africa. The Process is a journey on many levels. Within these levels, deeper meanings surface, and magic events take place or appear to take place.
