Description
A journey that The Beatles made to India in August 1968 is considered one of the key events for western pop culture: it caused an enormous stir in the international media and was fundamental in spreading a certain interest for the East that influenced music, literature, cinema, fashion and customs from the close of that decade.
The book (whose title is reminiscent of a famous lyric in the song Strawberry Fields Forever, one that invites people into searching beyond appearances with a sort of spiritual and metaphysical tension) illustrates that extraordinary moment through historical photographs, reports from the period, works of art, in addition to album, book and magazine covers.
