Description
Allen Ginsberg delighted in taking candid snapshots of friends and fellow writers, but until now readers have had little opportunity to consider the 'poetic' world of his photographs. Here, in the form of twenty detachable postcards, are photographs taken on the poet's many travels abroad. Pictures include: Kerouac, Ginsberg, and Corso in Mexico; Burroughs and Bowles in Tangier; Snyder in Japan; Whalen and Creeley in Vancouver; Ginsberg in India and Prague; and Philip Glass in Turkey.
Author Bio
Allen Ginsberg is also the author of Howl and Other Poems, which was originally published by City Lights Books in the fall of 1956.
