The Complete, Uncensored History of the Beat Generation

Average rating4
I enjoyed the book a great deal, even though it seemed to contain too much and too little information at once, trying to juggle the lives of a couple of dozen creative, restless, and troublemaking people. Their work was groundbreaking and they were also terribly shitty people to many of those around them. Lots of sex, drugs, travel, and writing. Stereotypical bohemians. Part of me envies part of them.
