From DEBORAH DAVIS, the author of Strapless, comes THE TRIP: Andy Warhol's Plastic Fantastic Cross-Country Adventure (Atria, July 28th, 2015, ISBN 9781476703510), a book about a little-known road trip Andy Warhol took from New York to LA in 1963 and how that journey -- and the numerous artists and celebrities he encountered -- profoundly influenced his life and art.  What began as a madcap, drug-fueled romp became a journey that took Warhol on a kaleidoscopic adventure from New York City, across the vast American heartland, all the way to Hollywood and back.  

THE TRIP provides a passenger seat view from Andy Warhol's speeding Ford Falcon, transporting readers from the last vestiges of the sleepy Eisenhower epoch to the true beginning of the explosive, exciting '60s. With in-depth, original research, Davis sheds new light on one of the most enduring figures in the art world and captures a fascinating moment in 1960s America -- with Warhol at its center.
