San Francisco: City Lights Pocket Bookshop, 1956. First Edition. Very Good. First edition, first issue with Lucien Carr listed on the dedication page and a period after Harlem on the rear cover. Publisher's black wraps printed in blue with white wraparound printed in black. Very Good with toning, soiling and wear; erased pencil mark to front cover and crease to bottom corner there as well. An undisputed cornerstone of beat poetry, Ginsberg's initial inspiration came from a terrifying vision he had during a San Francisco peyote trip. The poem defined a generation.
