Abbie Hoffman

    Abbott Howard Hoffman, connu sous le nom d'Abbie Hoffman, fut un éminent activiste social et politique américain, devenu une icône de la rébellion de la jeunesse et de l'activisme radical des années 1960. Dans son autobiographie, il se décrivit comme un anarchiste. Hoffman fut cofondateur du Youth International Party, ou "Yippies". Il joua un rôle central dans les manifestations lors de la Convention Nationale Démocrate de 1968, ce qui conduisit à son procès aux côtés d'autres dans le cadre des procédures des "Chicago Eight" (plus tard "Chicago Seven").

      A driving force behind the social revolution of the 1960s and 1970s, Hoffman inspired a generation to challenge the status quo. Meant as a practical guide for the aspiring hippie, Steal This Book captures Hoffman's puckish tone. Outrageously illustrated by R. Crumb, it nevertheless conveys a serious message to all would-be revolutionaries: You don't have to take it anymore. Illustrations.

      A book from the U.S. underground, covering Abbie--in disguise--interviewing people, touring the FBI building, and organizing a campaign to save the St. Lawrence River. The articles are creative, funny, nervy, and political.
