It's difficult to read Neruda and remain intact.

from New Directions Publishing Corporation
Price: $9.95

Customer Review:
I wish those who praise Ferlinghetti and his work (or even those who disparage them) would LEARN from HIM that he, by his own repeated statement, is NOT a "Beat".
Such guilt by association is an insult to him: unlike so-called "Beats," including vapid wind-bag Ginsberg, Ferlinghetti... more info

from New Directions
Price: $70.00

Customer Review:
Coney Island of the Mind has been around so long it's easy to take it for granted. Give this perfect edition another look: apart from one or two weaker poems that sound like Zippy Beatnik parodies, it's a surprisngly strong collection. Support LF while's he's still with us: there's even a cd reading... more info

6.These Are My Rivers: New and Selected Poems, 1955-1993These Are My Rivers: New & Selected Poems, 1955-1993
from New Directions Publishing Corporation
Price: $11.16

Customer Review:
The new poems that begin this collection are wonderful; the voice is strong and sure with rich, fresh images and allusions that explode in all kinds of directions. the poems give me a chance to say, "Oh, I get that." or most of it.
I haven't gotten to the selected poems from all of his books,... more info

7.Pictures of the Gone World (City Lights Pocket Poets Series)Pictures of the Gone World (City Lights Pocket Poets Series)
from City Lights Publishers
Price: $7.95

Customer Review:
"Pictures of the Gone World" had not been so fully praised as Ferlinghetti's next book of poems, "A Coney Island of the Mind". The only reason I can come up with is the extensive use of surrealist imagery and references to other poets, painters, sculptors etc., that the poems are full with. But in... more info

8.A Far Rockaway of the Heart (New Directions Paperbook)A Far Rockaway of the Heart (New Directions Paperbook)
from New Directions Publishing Corporation
Price: $10.16

Customer Review:
This is a great book for exploring the Bohemian poetry movement in the U.S. (namely, San Francisco). Contains the poem, "Autobiography," in which Ferlinghetti misidentifies Mount Rushmore as existing in North Dakota--but as I met him recently at a reading at the U of Minnesota, he was cool about... more info

9.City Lights Pocket Poets AnthologyCity Lights Pocket Poets Anthology
from City Lights Publishers
Price: $14.78

Customer Review:
I think this book is quite a bit overrated. People speak about this book gushing with sappiness. I guess I should make it clear at this point that I'm not really a big fan of this style of poetry. I think beatnik prose can be pretty good and pretty poetic, but I tend to be a little leary about... more info

from New Directions Publishing Corporation
Price: $19.95

Customer Review:
This is the most extraordinary book of poems I have read in the past decade... Aridjis is the most visionary poet in Latin America, no doubt about it... since I read his first poems in Exaltation of Light I embarked on a search for more translations into English. And now, this incredible anthology... more info
