Item Description
Amassed from the riches of the Naropa University audio archives, Beats at Naropa: an Anthology by Anne Waldman and Laura Wright offers an exciting new look at the Beats—whose influence lives on in the art and politics of our time.This copy is signed by Anne Waldman.
In this often spontaneous, conversational book, readers are introduced to the hard truths behind being a Beat woman, the haunting accuracy of William Burroughs’s world-view, the passion and energy of Allen Ginsberg and Anne Waldman, Jack Kerouac’s unexpected musicality, Diane DiPrima’s foray into small press publishing, Michael McClure’s account of the famous first reading of “Howl,” and, most of all, the inspirations behind America’s most provocative and prescient thinkers.
Anne Waldman, Naropa University co-founder, professor of poetics, Summer Writing Program chair, and artistic director has been an active member of the “Outrider” experimental poetry community for over 40 years as writer, sprechstimme performer, professor, editor, magpie scholar, infra-structure and cultural/political activist. She co-founded The Jack Kerouac School of Disembodied Poetics with Allen Ginsberg at Naropa University. She is the author of over 40 books of poetry including Manatee/Humanity, Kill or Cure, Marriage: A Sentence, Structure of the World Compared to a Bubble, and the poetic text Outrider.
Coffee House Press, founded by Allan Kornblum, has grown from a poetry magazine and letterpress to one of the premier nonprofit literary publishers in the nation.
