Frida Forsgren | Akateeminen Kirjakauppa

Studies of beat culture have focused on the trio Kerouac, Ginsberg and Burroughs, leaving many of the so-called minor figures in the shadows. This study contributes to the mapping of these unknowns by presenting 13 artists from the Californian underground in the 1950s and 1960s. The book is a contribution to a wider understanding of beat culture and of lives lived underground.
