Description
Beginning in the late 1940's, American literature discovered a four-letter word, and the word was 'beat.' This book collects the significant writings of the fellow members of the Beat Generation. In poetry, fiction, essays, and memoirs, it captures the triumphant rudeness, energy, and exhilaration of a movement that swept through American letters.
