Nog (novel)
''Nog'' is a psychedelic novel by Rudolph Wurlitzer published in 1968. Monte Hellman's enjoyment of the novel prompted him to hire Wurlitzer to rewrite the screenplay for ''Two-Lane Blacktop'' (1971). ''Nog'' was reprinted in 2009 by the independent publisher Two Dollar Radio.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Two Dollar Radio )〕
==Plot Overview==
The novel's style is deliberately disjointed and at times self-contradictory. It is the first person account of an unnamed and rather unreliable narrator as he meanders through life. He occasionally gives his name as Nog, but also implies that Nog is a different person. At the start of the novel, he is in the possession of a fake octopus in the back of a truck, which he may have just purchased from Nog. He encounters a silly old man, Colonel Green, who is obsessed with maintaining a seawall outside his beach home. The narrator then arrives at a commune run by a man named Lockett, who is alternately presented as an oracle, a drug dealer, a con-man, and a visionary. Lockett calls himself Nog for a while. The narrator goes off into a forest on his own and almost gets shot by a hunter named Bench. The narrator shares drugs with Bench, who then attacks the commune, killing Lockett. The narrator next adopts Lockett's identity and leaves the commune with a female member named Meridith. Together they raid a hospital for drugs, where they encounter a senile old man named The General. The narrator and Meridith then enter a desert, where they meet yet another old man, a hermit named The Captain, and mistakes Nog for Lockett and claims to have known his father. He supplies the couple with tickets to a ship, which they board. There they encounter another old man named The Captain, who also mistakes Nog for Lockett. The novel concludes at sea with the narrator becoming separated from Meridith.
