| | 1. | [no image] | Memoirs of a Beatnik
from Last Gasp of San Francisco
Customer Review:
No, it is not porn...but it is definitely not for prudes!
This book gave me a gorgeous, ripe, sensual snapshot of the life and the times of Diane DiPrima and the subculture in which she existed.
The writing sometimes lacked, but overall - it's a juicy peach with a bittersweet aftertase.

| | 2. |  | Revolutionary Letters
from Last Gasp
Price: $10.17
Customer Review:
Ranging from cutting political literalness to heart-bending humanness, these letters comprise a solid coming-of-age volume. Their greatest power comes from a question that recurs in different forms throughout: Why Not? Why not stop driving and plant flowers in cars? Why not love like crazy? Why not... more info

| | 3. |  | Pieces of a Song: Selected Poems
from City Lights Publishers
Price: $12.76
Customer Review:
To say that this collection of poems is "delightful" would be the understatement of the decade. Diane DiPrima quickly knocked her way up to being one of my favorite poets in the space of 5 days (the time it took for me to read this book !). These poems are bohemian and contemporary. They're forlorn... more info

| | 4. |  | Will Work For Peace: New Political Poems
from Zeropanik Press
Customer Review:
I go to a somewhat conservative boarding school and lent this book to one of my writing teachers, who previously had said that there is no way that a political poem can be heartfelt. This book proves that notion wrong. Normally when people think about politics, they only think about who is running... more info

| | 6. |  | First Thought Best Thought
from Sounds True
Price: $29.95
Customer Review:
I've been having an ongoing flirtation with the "Beat Generation" this year, having read Diane Di Prima, Anne Waldman, William Burroughs, Allen Ginsberg and Jack Kerouac, among others. When I stumbled across this set of audio CD's, I thought I'd died and gone to heaven. To hear these giants of their... more info
