Hardcover. Condición: Fine. Estado de la sobrecubierta: Near Fine. Steven Watson. The Birth of the Beat Generation - Visionaries, Rebels, and Hipsters, 1944-1960. NY: Pantheon Books, 1995, 4th. printing, ix, 387 pp. *** This title is part of a three volume series by Watson named Circles of the Twentieth Century. This particular work is the result of an impressive amount of research done just a few decades after the Beats morphed into the Hippies. It is good that he did this, because the Beats will not stand up to the test of time, meaning research will become increasingly difficult on what is becoming an obscure subject. Watson's attention focuses on a a few of the biggest names, those who defined "beat" - William Burroughs, Allen Ginsberg, Jack Kerouac, Neal Cassady, Lawrence Ferlinghetti, Gary Snyder, Gregory Corso, Herbert Huncke, and Peter Orlovsky. Watson describes for each their backgrounds, "beat" experiences, land literary works through 1960. There are a goodly number of b&w photo illustrations. Photo illustrated dust jacket (not price clipped) is in a clear protective cover. This book is in my inventory and the images are of this particular item. *** Brown paper boards and wheat paper spine with gold lettering. Two red remainder dots on bottom of text block. Book is slightly cocked. Covers are clean with almost no wear, contents complete in good binding, withn a Near Fine jacket. *** 7.5 inches tall by 7.75 inches. Nº de ref. del artículo: 5215
