More about the book
Exploring the Beat movement, this collection features two seminal works that broadened the scope of poetry. The New Book/A Book of Torture, penned during a turbulent period, is a spontaneous long poem reflecting on liberation from darkness through intense experiences. In contrast, Star delves into spiritual quests and political activism, infused with themes of eros and playfulness. Michael McClure's unique blend of animal energy, art, and human nature makes these works pivotal in understanding the West Coast Beat phenomena.
