Description
A hypnotic tale of a Little Boy's life - and the craziness of the century that witnessed it - from one of the last surviving members of the Beat Generation.
Lawrence Ferlinghetti was born in New York in 1919. He was the co-founder of City Lights Booksellers in San Francisco, where he championed many of the century's greatest authors, especially of the Beat Generation. He was arrested on obscenity charges for publishing Allen Ginsberg's Howl. Ferlinghetti has written over forty poetry collections, including the bestselling A Coney Island of the Mind, and has received a National Book Critics Circle lifetime achievement award. His memoir Little Boy was published in 2019. He died in February 2021, described by Bob Dylan as 'a brave man and a brave poet.'
