Reviews
A comprehensive, lively and supremely approachable introduction to the turbulence and iconoclasm of mid-twentieth-century American writers and their lives., In this essential study, Professor Gair takes us beyond the cliches of the beatnik and non-conformity to establish how the Beat Generation came out of the political, economic, cultural, and ideological tensions of post-1945 America., Making a clear and coherent historical narrative out of the richly varied but often messy and disputed elements comprising the Beat Generation., For its breadth of coverage, including the international impact of the Beats, as well as for the perspecuity of its detailing, this book is both an excellent beginning point and a reference source to be returned to time and again., The special merit of Christopher Gair's supremely intelligent study is its awareness that the Beats still attract attention for extra literary reasons.
