'The Americans, Baby' is a contemporary classic of sexual and social mores in Australia. Set mainly within the Sydney alternative subculture of the 1960's, it explores the uncertainties and ambiguities of the Americanisation of Australia. Meet Becker, a lonely American Coca-Cola executive; Paul Johnson, who graduated AB from New York City College; Terri, unstable as jazz; and the girl who met Simone de Beauvoir in Paris.
'The Americans, Baby' is both a compulsive read and a unique piece of Australian fiction. This twentieth anniversary edition is introduced by Brian Kiernan.
