Beat movement icon and visionary poet, Allen Ginsberg broke boundaries with his fearless, pyrotechnic verse.
Not only did he give us love and poetry, he reminded us of our civic duty to use our voice.\' - Patti Smith.
His words are him - they\'re like a living embodiment of him - they have his energy, his philosophy, his playfulness, his sexuality and his compassion. - Bob Dylan \'Allen is ever-present in his words. probably the single greatest influence on American poetical voice since Whitman.
Ginsberg is both tragic and dynamic, a lyrical genius ...
Howl and Other Poems is a collection of Ginsberg\'s finest work, including \'Howl\', one of the principal works of the Beat Generation as well as \'A Supermarket in California\', \'Transcription of Organ Music\', \'Sunflower Sutra\', \'America\', \'In the Baggage Room at Greyhound\', and some of his earlier works.
Dark, ecstatic and rhapsodic, \'Howl\' shows why Ginsberg was one of the most influential poets of the twentieth century.
The apocalyptic \'Howl\' became the subject of an obscenity trial when it was first published in 1956 - its vindication was a watershed moment in twentieth-century history.
