Description

Howl and Other Poems by Allen Ginsberg, introduction by William Carlos Williams

Allen Ginsberg’s Howl and Other Poems was originally published by City Lights Books in the Fall of 1956. Subsequently seized by U.S. customs and the San Francisco police, it was the subject of a long court trial at which a series of poets and professors persuaded the court that the book was not obscene.

Howl and Other Poems is the single most influential poetic work of the post-World War II era, with over 1,000,000 copies now in print.
