A UNIQUE HISTORY of THE BEATS, in the words of the MOVEMENT'S MOST CENTRAL MEMBER, ALLEN Ginsberg, based on a seminal series of his lectures. Works both as HISTORICAL RECORD and UNCONVENTIONAL MEMOIR.

A VIVID, PERSONAL and EYE-OPENING LOOK at one of THE MOST IMPORTANT LITERARY MOVEMENTS of the 20th CENTURY In 1977, twenty years after the publication of his landmark poem 'Howl' and Jack Kerouac's On the Road, Allen Ginsberg decided it was time to teach a course on the literary history of the Beat Generation The convoluted origin story of the "Beat" idea, recounts anecdotes of meeting Kerouac, Burroughs, and other figures for the first time, elucidates the importance of music, and particularly jazz rhythms, to Beat writing, discusses their many influences - literary, pharmaceutical and spiritual - and paints a portrait of a group who were leading a literary revolution.
