Gilbert Green: The Real Right Way to Dress for Spring

A tragi-comic story of rock'n'roll and madness, capturing the quintessential idealism of 1968 meeting the hard edge of American reality. Gilbert Green is an attuned but innocent genius, a dreamer, a poet and filmmaker, around whom a young entourage of adventurers gathers. Gilbert Green is a novel in the form of a dream in the form of a novel, much like the year 1968 itself.

Frederick Ted Castle, a native to Lockport, New York, 20 miles from Niagara Falls, wrote Anticipation in 1963-1966 in New York City, where he has lived since graduation from Williams College in 1960. A lifelong affinity for art and artists has led to his career as a writer about painting, sculpture and performance in most of the world's arcane art journals.
