In the mid-'60s the media had burned out the Beat Generation and the 
Hippies hadn't arrived so they turned to motorcycle gangs for the covers 
of Life and other mags. I bought a cheap paperback because the cover art 
had bikers. 

I was carrying it around to read between classes when the English 
professor saw it and praised my taste in literature. I played it cool and 
didn't let on I was puzzled by the complete lack of motorcycles that had 
been on the cover and the weird Russian slang the characters used. Of 
course I didn't have a clue who Burgess was.
