Synopsis "Granta 12: The True Adventured of the Rolling Stones "

Stanely Booth was meant to be the authorised biographer of the Rolling Stones, but, shortly after he began writing in 1968, things started to go wrong. The American concert tour that he joined ended in murder at a race track in the Californian desert, and the time that followed - in which Booth was assaulted by Hell's Angels, beaten up by American soldiers, run over by a lorry, imprisoned, and subjected to epileptic fits while trying to withdraw from drugs - was characterised only be confusion, loss and disillusionment. Completed fifteen years after it was begun, 'The True Adventures of the Rolling Stones' is only in part about the group of musicians it depicts. It is also a social history and a confession - a chronicle, in the tradition of Michael Herr's Dispatches, of people united in a curious commitment to their own destruction.

Bill Buford es un escritor y periodista estadounidense nacido en 1954 en Baton Rouge, Luisiana. Estudió Literatura en la Universidad de California, Berkeley, y obtuvo una beca Marshall para completar sus estudios en el King’s College, Cambridge. Fue editor fundador de la revista Granta desde 1979 hasta 1995, y desde entonces colabora con The New Yorker como editor y escritor. Su trayectoria combina el periodismo, la narrativa de no ficción y una curiosidad voraz por lo urbano, lo social y lo culinario.

Entre sus obras más conocidas está Among the Thugs (1991), un libro-testimonio en el que se interna durante años en la violencia del hooliganismo futbolístico británico; y Heat (2006), una inmersión literal en la cocina —lavando platos, cortando carne, trabajando en restaurantes— que mezcla gastronomía, cultura y reflexión personal. Su capacidad para describir mundos extremos —desde hinchadas violentas hasta cocinas frenéticas— con honestidad, detalle y pulso narrativo le ha dado un lugar destacado entre los escritores de no-ficción contemporáneos.
