Whitman's Wild Children

by Cherkovski, Neeli

Whitman's Wild Children is a profile of twelve beat poets by Neeli Cherkovski, each of them chosen because they follow the ideals of Walt Whitman and took their own road - forsaking what was considered acceptable to standard American culture in the tempestuous 1940-50's.

Michael McClure, Charles Bukowski, John Wieners, James Broughton, Philip Lamantia, Bob Kaufman, Allen Ginsberg, William Everson, Gregory Corso, Harold Norse, and Lawrence Ferlinghetti
