Publisher Description:
Many of the seminal figures of contemporary culture knew and worked with Allen Ginsberg and have a place in this book. Among them are Cecil Taylor, David Amram, Philip Glass, Ray Manzarek, Ed Sanders, Czeslaw Milosz, Norman Mailer, Robert Frank, Gary Snyder, Lawrence Ferlinghetti, Michael McClure, Gregory Corso, William Burroughs, Philip Whalen, Peter Orlovsky, and Robert Creeley. In this book we truly see Allen Ginsberg as a poet, a spiritualist, a friend, a lover, a performer, a teacher, and a lover of good times. A complex and many-faceted life is given its due in this inspired photographic history of Ginsbergs life from 1980 through 1997. The Late Great Allen Ginsberg is a deeply moving recollection of Americas most important post-World War II poet, informed by Ginsbergs sensitivity, his love of life, and his humanitarianism. Allen Ginsberg spent hardly any time alone. We see him giving poetry readings and workshops, chatting with friends, pursued by admirers on the street, in group meditation, talking with Peter Orlovsky. The special power of Christopher Felvers photographs comes from his ability to accurately and reverentially document Ginsbergs intense network of social relations at the heart of the Beat universe.
