Beat Poets

The founding fathers of the Beat aesthetic, Allen Ginsberg and Jack Kerouac, are joined in this Beat anthology by lesser-known poets and prose stylists such as Bob Kaufman and Peter Orlovsky. Widely representing the movement, this collection also includes the voices of female Beatniks Diane Di Prima and Denise Levertov, among others. Correspondence and essays issuing from the era supplement the collection. Copyright (C) Muze Inc. 2005. For personal use only. All rights reserved.
