- Synopsis
- Compiled by a lifelong scholar of the Beat generation, this anthology contains excerpts from essays, speeches, poetry, and fiction representative of the American counterculture of the 1960s. Included are the words of Allen Ginsberg on conducting a demonstration, Gloria Steinem on unlearning sexism, and Malcolm X on fighting for voting rights. The volume concludes with a selection of ten elegies, including Archibald MacLeish's "Hemingway" and a poem for Janis Joplin by Marilyn Hacker.
