Allen Ginsberg Photographs

Summary: The Texture Of Literary History
Review: From the close up photo of aging King Junkie Burroughs to the bathroom snap of naked, youthful Ginsberg and Corso, this massive collection of black and whites, circa Beat Generation, is quite amazing. Each photo is captioned in Ginsberg's own hand and his descriptions/musings tell the story of the Horsemen of Apocalyptic Literature as they roamed through their own private world. I highly recommend this photo essay to fans of that special genre of writing and living.

Summary: History and Art
Review: Personal and Beat history were captured by Ginsberg with his simple camera. Other books have called them snapshots, but Ginsberg could not help but create art, as well. The paper used by the printer could have been better. Yet this book is well worth the price.
