Blast books, New York, 1993. First Edition. Softcover. Very Good Condition/No Dust Jacket. Spots of foxing to the front edge of the text block, no other damage. The author inspired a generation of writers including beta luminaries Allen Ginsberg and Jack Kerouac and counterculture authors Ken Kesey and Tom Wolfe To attempt to set down pieces of ex-his exuberant life in their writing. But the complexity of the real-life Neal Cassady has never been as poisonous Lee and starkly revealed as in his letters written from San Quentin to his wife Caroline, their three children, and his godfather. – Rear panel blurb Full number line.
