After reading Henry Miller's The Air-Conditioned Nightmare, Julien Allouf decided to follow in the footsteps of its author on a long journey that would take him from New York to Big Sur on the Pacific coast of the United States. Interweaving excerpts from travel journals, photographs, and fragments of Miller's novel, this book retraces a journey to the heart of America and the air-conditioned nightmare. Texts by Nicolas Mathieu, Neige Sinno, and Bernard Plossu punctuate this dive into the American nightmare.
