Ginsburg is, IMHO, very tame for this day and age. I suppose he did cause a stir way back then, but times have changed and so have the people. What was considered scandalous back then is probably quite normal now. AG has always seemed to me a bit theatrical, like a play someone puts on to highlight that sort of life, but just to hint at it, sort of stop at the very fringes of the darkness because to fully enter it would result in some sort of demonic soul-possession or something. This girl's been there.. you can hear the ring of truth in her words. <BR/><BR/>If you still can't get there I'll have to mail you the link, and maybe you can type it in manually.. it deserves to be read, if only to see writing from the heart is really like.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7912730.post-1129897449035937122005-10-21T20:24:00.000+08:002005-10-21T20:24:00.000+08:00Sharon, there are some books by and about Ginsberg...Sharon, there are some books by and about Ginsberg at Popular Ikano, too, that I've been looking at longingly, too!<BR/><BR/>Check out the following:<BR/><A HREF="http://www.arionpress.com/catalog/038.htm" REL="nofollow">Kaddish, White Shroud, and Black Shroud by Allen Ginsberg, with art by R. B. Kitaj</A><BR/><BR/>After I found it online, I went searching for a copy at both amazon.com and alibris.com. Couldn't find any, and then I went back to the above page, scrolled down and learned that it's a limited edition of only 200 copies, each costing $600/-, and out of print.Chethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10743260318771644192noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7912730.post-1129891356807500182005-10-21T18:42:00.000+08:002005-10-21T18:42:00.000+08:00What I love about my blog is that the nice folks w...What I love about my blog is that the nice folks who drop by tell me about other stuff I've missed. I have a lot to discover. Chet, I was looking longingly at a collection of Ginsberg's poems in KinoKuniya today and may well buy it when I feel less bookguilt at the number of unread books I possess. I've heard of <I>Kaddish</I> but not <I>Black Shroud</I> or <I>White Shroud</I>. There's clearly a lot of ignorance to be banished.<BR/><BR/>Anonymous - who is Solana d'Cruz - I could not find anything on the web - just a link to a site that I couldn't enter.bibliobibulihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16456636355933524132noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7912730.post-1129881462025795962005-10-21T15:57:00.000+08:002005-10-21T15:57:00.000+08:00"Capturing the rebellious, hungry, anguished voice..."Capturing the rebellious, hungry, anguished voice of disillutioned youth.

One of the poems he read was "Mind Breaths" - like it a lot.<BR/><BR/>His "Black Shroud" is powerful, too. Years after, he wrote "White Shroud" - have you read it?<BR/><BR/>Oh, I recently found a copy of <I>Deliberate Prose</I> from the Cold Storage book corner that you mentioned (yes, I finally found the corner).Chethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10743260318771644192noreply@blogger.com
