- First Edition, 1. Jan. 1968
The Pump House Gang is a 1968 collection of essays and articles by Tom Wolfe. The pieces in the book explore various aspects of the counterculture of the 1960s.
The title essay is based on a two-part New York Herald Tribune Sunday Magazine article titled The New Life Out There, about Jack Macpherson and his social circle of surfers that congregated at a sewage pump house at Windansea Beach in La Jolla, California.
The pieces in The Pump House Gang are written in the style of New Journalism that Wolfe and other writers like Joan Didion and Gay Talese helped to popularize. According to Time magazine's review of Wolfe's book:
He uses a language that explodes with comic-book words like "POW!" and "boing." His sentences are shot with ellipses, stabbed with exclamation points, or bombarded with long lists of brand names and anatomical terms. He is irritating, but he did develop a new journalistic idiom that has brought relief from standard Middle-High Journalese
