Hi
Nancy, I love your spiritedness, I still want to answer your post-.
The
emergemce of a top flower that just approaches perfection more than the
vast
number of specimen that are all reaching for it, is just a fact of
nature.
Whatever I am looking at, from a to z, including marijuana, or
physical
strength or beauty, wheat fields produced by nature, art produced
by
persons, there are the vast majority, the avarage, pretty good enough to
survive,
but have to strain everything they got just to do that, to survive.
Usually
the first taste of it overwhelms you with how great it is, but it
don't
stay long, leaves you tired and exhausted. Had to strain too much. A
very
few are not equipped well enough to survive. Poor specimen. Sad. But no
less
value in the scheme of things. I too enjoy my life, even though I drop
my jaws
in awe when I see what other people are producing. Dismissing
unequal
endowment as "just competition" to outdo each other just looks away
from
the fact of nature.
I like
Diane's calling to our attention Kerouac's distinctions between
talent
and genius. (Thanks Diane, I so often want to say thanks Diane) Lots
of us
strain our talents to do something good with it, many of us succeed,
barely.
In
human mind matters we call the very, very few top flowers "genius".
What
was the
dream of many writers, to produce the great american novel, was many
times a
metaphor for the dream of saying it all in a manner that elnlightens
about
everything and inspires the imagination of the reader to get the full
story.
Of course there are zillions of beautiful, inspiring and illuminating
sories,
but somewhere is the genius above all other geniuses that every
connoiseur
is dying to encounter, that will weave the details into the full
picture,
lots of ways to say it. We always are on the lookout for that
essence
captured in its richness of details in an appetizing appealing work
that
shows it all to us, no matter how complex.
Maybe
OTR did this for the post wwII educated white middle class american
youth.
But where is the book of the century that starts plunging into the
currents
of America, the frontrunner of the Western world history and
culture
wher the families nations and races of the past move in together one
way or
another in strife misery and mistreating each other, their environent
and
each other but somehow also forced into melding together, building vast
technologies,
a new race in the making, in turbulent, dynamic action and
power
hungry arm twisting moving from pen to computer, from ground to air
locomotion,
where is the work that will hold it all up to us like a dazzling
mirror
to the imagination. Some genius will be there using all the tools
available,
then we will know it when we see it. Just like Shakespeare or
Beethoven
stood out of the crowd. We'll know them when we see them. And yes,
absolutely
let's enjoy whatever beauty is produced all around us avey day,
everywhere.

From:
_War of the Classes_ - Jack London
"Just
about this time, returning from a seven
months'
voyage before the mast, and just turned
eighteen,
I took it into my head to go tramping.
On rods
and blind baggages I fought my way from
the
open West, where men bucked big and the job
hunted
the man, to the congested labor centres of
the
East, where men were small potatoes and hunted
the job
for all they were worth. And on this
new
"blond-beast"
adventure I found myself looking upon
life
from a new and totally different angle.
I had
dropped
down from the proletariat into what sociologists
love to
call the "submerged tenth," and I was startled
to
discover the way in which that submerged tenth
was
recruited.
I found
there all sorts of men, many of whom had once
been as
good as myself, and just as "blond-beastly";
sailor-men,
soldier-men, labor-men, all wrenched and
distorted
and twisted out of shape by toil and hardship and
accident,
and cast adrift by their masters like so many
old
horses. I battered on the drag and
slammed back
gates
with them, or shivered with them in box cars and
city
parks, listening the while to life-histories which began
under
auspices as fair as mine, with digestions and
bodies
to equal mine, and which ended there before my
eyes in
the shambles at the bottom of the Social Pit.
And as
I listened my brain began to work. The
woman
of the
streets and the man of the gutter drew very close
to
me. I saw the pictue of the Social Pit
as vividly as
though
it were a concrete thing, and at the bottom of the
Pit I
saw them, myself above them, not far, and hanging
on to
the slippery wall by main strength and sweat.
And
I
confess a terror seized me. What when
my strength
failed? When I should be unable to work shoulder to
shoulder
with the strong men who were as yet babes unborn?
And
there and then I swore a great oath. It
ran something
like
this: All my days I have worked hard
with my body,
and
according to the number of days I have worked, by just
that
much am I nearer the bottom of the Pit.
I shall
climb
out of the Pit, but not by the muscles of my body shall
I climb
out. I shall do no more hard work; and
may God
strike
me dead if I do another day's hard work with my
body
more than I absolutely have to do. And
I have been
busy
ever since running away from hard work."

Jack
Kerouac's literature can be grounded, surely, by what he read. Profound
external
influences enhanced his education, that of friends who were also
well
read in most phases of his life where the mind is impressionable and is
ready
to absrob abstract thought. Part of what Kerouac is all about can be
stemmed
from his early reading of Spengler's Decline of the West. With this
work
and others like it grounded into his aesthetic consciousness, he is
able to
affirm to his self and to others who were conducive to his
objectives
as a writer, that what he wanted above all was to nurture a
"secret
ambition to be a tremendous life-changing prophetic artist" (Letter
to Neal
Cassady 1-8-51).
Spengeler writes, "The text of a
conviction is never a test of its
reality,
for man is rarely conscious of his own beliefs."(Spengler, 179).
Kerouac
knew this and tested this throughout his life as a writer and as an
observer.
Reading, the very act of it as a writer reading the work of
another
writer is on another level than one who reads for pleasure alone. It
is a
sort of research. A small list in the quarterly shows that Kerouac had
a gamut
of titles on his shelf. Christopher Smart, Joyce,Ezra Pound, Alan
Harrington's
Secret Swinger, Vladimir Nabokov "the world's greatest living
writer"
Jack had inscribed into his copy of the book, "Lolita", and Jean
Genet.
Early Kerouac texts shows an influence of Hemingway, Proust, Saroyan,
Thomas
Mann, and Wolfe. The mighty surge of words in Town and the City lends
evidence
to Kerouac's revernece to Melville and Balzac, the act of writing a
huge
opus which he had "laboured through poverty, disease, and beraevement
and
madness" (Letter to Ginsberg, April 1948). That reading plays a huge
part in
what captures the soul of Kerouac's writing is so evident it demands
a
dissertation to try and pick apart the very influences that pervades
throughout
his work. P.
"We
cannot well do without our sins; they are the highway to our virtues."
Henry David Thoreau

well, as i said before, i'm looking at
method. why won't it be
linear? for the same reason the post-modernists
don't paint like
monet,
for the same reason the impressionists didn't paint like the
artists
before them. is it necessarily better
as time progresses? that
could
be argued either way. I think as far as
America is concerned
non-linear,
unrational, plotlessness is what we need right now. the
majority
of lit out there now has fallen behind "cultural progression,"
and not
wthout reason. our conscousnesses must
change in order for us
to
catch up with circumstances in our time.
we have to stop trying to
order
the chaos and embrace it, to be mad drunken observers of a sort.
greatness
is a bad word, i take it only to mean the next step in
literature. great american novels have been
written. On the Road,
Gatsby,
Grapes of Wrath, East of Eden, A River Runs Through It, there
are a
lot. artists have "to art" in
their times, for their times, and
for
everyone in that time, or their art is only pseudo-intellectual
garbage. and so we need to spawn lit through the
disheveled
consciousness
of our time infused with the hopes of the future.

You are
comparing parody of a poem that has received worldwide acclaim,
whose
author is no longer alive, to smearing with feces the poetry of some
living
person who is daring to make first hesitant steps to bare her soul to
friends,
yes I thought we are friends, and getting vulgarities replacing her
words?!
Also,
Mr Oullette, your advice to me would carry more weight if you had
bothered
to look at what you so readily tsk. tsk,. me about.
Lastly,
if you suggest we shouldn't be so thin skinned about being messed
around
with, than how come you object when someone expresses honestly felt
reactions,
that you don't approve of?
Think a
little bit more and read before you leap into criticizing others,
and
also look at yourself and take your own counsel, please.

I agree
with most of what you have to say. I am
all for free speech and
the
freedom to disagree. I agree that if
one posts anything they should
expect
a critical response. But read Maher's
piece. It clearly goes
way
beyond the borders of good taste, and certainly of any civility
toward
fellow listmemembers. There is a social
context to this list.
These
are all real people, people we talk to daily.
We can disagree all
we

meansprited
and unnecessary.

I
really don't enjoy getting into frays such as this. I've had some
regrets
about my post about Paul's personality -- but nothing to lose
sleep
over. The line that hit the nerve that
sparked my writing about
this
was something at the end of one of his poems (not his revisions of
others)
which used the word "crap" about the process of testing one's
creative
juices out -- and especially that timid move we all face of
sharing
poetic births with others. While I was
not particularly
victimized
by Paul's satires -- i might actually have been less upset if
i had
been vicitimized ironically (maybe i secretly felt left out
<Grin>),
I felt that the hurdle we all go through to begin letting our
words
flow and then the hurdle of sharing those words are definitely as
rough a
road as a steeplechase. To call by
implication the products of
others
crap seemed unduly foul.
On
another note, I really appreciated Paul's quick post concerning my
questions
about Kerouac and Reading. Some of my
wonderings were
certainly
addressed. More wonderings still remain
in my original
questions.
I
imagine that this will about hit my limit for 10 posts in a day (if
i'm not
already over the limit).....
so ...

paul (
and co.)
of
course i agree with you that kerouac's work has a great amount of
intertext
w/ other authors. BUT text can include much more than simply
printed
words (some would insist that exitsance is "text") and kerouac is
as
inspired by bird parker and bebop as he is by spengler and balzac (as
well as
wolfe, joyce, etc...) and i wonder what in terms of art (graphic
art as
opposed to printed art) kerouac found an influence.
also - unfortunatley i think that b/c
kerouac wrote abt himslef
(or was
at least was inspired by his own life) his books and his life are
too
often mixed. we should keep in mind burroughs reference to kerouac
being
an "author" above all else - kerouac wrote fiction! (and while much
of the
events are inspired by his own life and such - he is strecthing and
confusing
and manipulating the facts to create the story the way he wajts
to tell
- for instance wsb's "fortune" and "allowance" that kerouac
makes
reference
to. i think thatwsb clearly makes it evident that there was no
fortune
in "whatever happened to kerouac?"...)

I was a
bit confused when I proclaimed Gatsby the GAN.
Fitzgerald and
Hemingway,
like Henry Miller, Anais Nin, Artaud, et al, made the Beat
Generation
possible, as precursors to a 24-7 bohemian lifestyle.
Gatsby
was the GAN of its time.
And, of
course, appreciation for Artaud dwindled except in a few musicians.

Hey, I
like the Grape American Novel.
Brautigan
with his muscatel. Coppola with his vineyard. A cool cellar, a
loaf of
bread, and lots of time.
Still,
when we say "Great American Novel", don't we mean something more
than
"Best American Novel"? What are the parameters for "Great"?
or
"American"?
For instance, Diane Carter suggested that the "Great American
Novel"
should portray the American spirit and the American dream. Why?
Could
there not be a more vital story? America is more than one story,
isn't
it? Well, Hollywood may not think so, but that should put it into
perspective
quickly. Or, to look at it from another sideways glance, the
Beats,
esp. Bukowski, are extremely popular in Germany (and German
film-makers
are awfully fond of the U.S.). To follow that: might not a
German
write the Great American Novel? They already have "American"
restaurants,
the way we have "French" ones. If not, why not?
What's
more, "Great American Novel" suggests to me at least a sense of
universal
definition, phrased, as Diane Carter asked for, in a new approach
to or
extension of language. My take is that "Novel" is limitting here, as
others
have suggested as well.
Best,
Harold

Content-Type:

Just
read in the newspaper about the recent release of "When I was Born
for the
7th Time" CD by a english group named Cornershop. It has Allen
Ginsberg
declaiming one of his poems with background of live sounds of
ambiance
in a Punjab market, as is stated in the interview with band
members:
...
Question:
One of the most remarkable tracks of this CD uses the voice of
beat
poet Allen Ginsberg, recently deceased. How come that collaboration
to
happen ?
Answer:
We were touring the US during one year and a half. And what we
did was
to end all the concerts with one tape of a very long poem
declaimed
by Ginsberg, enregisted live in the
fifties. Allen khew about
this,
heard our previous CD and was interested in working with us. Then
in one
occasion we went to New York and made
arrangements to meet, and
he
talked to us about a poem he had written thinking in Bob Dylan and as
it was
conceived as a rock song. We tape him reciting that poem, in the
kitchen
of his apartment.
Question:
Then you attached that take with music that seems recorded in
a asian
market. What is the connection ?
Answer:
Yes, a tape that Tjinder did when he was in Punjab last years
summer.Then
we decide to attach those two tapes, because Ginsberg always
had a
strong attraction to Asia and his sympathies for oriental
philosophies
are well known.

I'm glad to hear that I'm not the only one
who thinks Vonnegut is
one of
the Great American Writers of our time.
Aside from the Beats
and
possibly Hemingway, he's the only great writer 20th Century
America
has ever had. It's so tragic that he
claims he's written his

hello
all.
in the
salinger list someone mentioned that one of their old english
professors
said "If you aren't going to do something interesting with
words,
you had better have a damn good plot." which i think is true,
but
perhaps it depends on the person for which is easiest to do. then
again,
all the really great stuff does both. and method is a lot more
important
than content. if you say something right, you could give it
a
double meaning, like the pun about steinback and the grape of wrath
someone
recently posted. parables also do this, but they use a simple
style
to relate the reader's attention back to the content.
although
i bet a lot of people not on the beat-l would disagree with
you,
the type who would not want to see that new movie boogie nights
because
of the subject dealing with the 70's porn industry.

Absalom by the end of the first chapter. What he did was fashion

chapter after the first by restating the various "truths" of each
character
about what happened with Sutpen. Shreve wants to know from Quentin
Compson
what the 'South" was like...each character has a different take on
this
but it is the structuring of the novel that makes it what it is and not
the

non-linear

Tyson,
The
notion that Leon Tabory is a fascist is probably the most ludicrous
thing I
have ever read. Leon is probably one of
the least fascistic
folks I
know.
I
thought earlier you claimed to to have read Maher's post. If that is
true
how can you defend what you haven't read?
Paul's
post was agressively rude and crude--essentially shaking his dick
in the
faces of the ladies who had posted poems.
I defend his right to
be an
ass, but I would still have to call a spade a spade.
Some
people have questioned the posting of poems to the list. Ron
Whitehead's
frenetic posting of his own stuff was resented by some.
I've
seen some wonderful things posted to this list and some things that
were
frankly pretty forgettable--but that doesn't mean you have the
right
to be grossly insulting. What's wrong
with a little civility
here--is
that facism? Your mother telling you to
not say anything if
you
couldn't say something nice was facism?
Give me a break.

I don't
know about "great" but there are some American Novels that
profoundly
shaped my way of looking at reality.
Some aren't really
novels
even. But, from the time I was about 16
to 24 or so, those
were,
in a general order of discovery:
The
Good Earth
Catch
22
Slaughterhouse
5
Moby
Dick
Trout
Fishing in America
A
Confederate General in Big Sur (?)
Thomas
Wolfe's work
Bob
Dylan (I saw it in a different light
after reading Wolfe)
Jack
Kerouac
V
The
Crying of Lot 49
Phillip
Dick's Science Fiction work
T S Eliot
Ginsberg
Studs
Turkle (sp?)
The
Last Tycoon (Fitzgerald's unfinished novel)
Michener
I think
I stuck to American writers there, but maybe not.
Outside
of America, in order as I recall:
Dickens
Shakespear
The
Kazamarov Brothers (sp)
Steppenwolf
I,
Claudius
The
White Goddess
King
Jesus
Tom
Jones (came to it rather late for some reason)
I think
that at various times I have imagined the GAN, but I am not
sure
that a writer can capture the spirit of America in one book. If
there
is one, I think it would be Of Time and the River by Wolfe. It
is a
hard read, but it captures the spirit best of anything that I
have
read. My second choice would be Dharma
Bums, although, I think
The
Last Tycoon is a masterpiece that did not receive its just due.
Off the
wall, into this email and on to you.

I've
corresponded some with RW recently. I
sent him my little ditty
"Gang
of One" that i'd posted on the Beat-L.
Not having been around
when
the RW history happened I had no real idea of the fact that folks
had
reacted against his writing. I'm
certainly glad that the atmosphere
has
changed with regards to such matters.
So who is gonna invite Ron

I was
thinking earlier today that HH's "Journey to the East" might be
the
great american novel. The whole notion
of whether the great novel
should
be attempted -- couched in the notion of history of the
journeyers
by HH -- may be a central idea that connnects many many of
the
various strings attached to this fascinating (for me) thread.

David,
Not
me! Others have tried, I think.
As for
me the thought of having two such tempremental egos as Ron
Whitehad
and Gerry Nicosia on the same list is a little terrifying. We
could
have wheels within wheels of paranoia.
And

I'd be

high schooly around here. Personal
differences are one thing, but
they

Jack
Kerouac on classic 'structured' poetry:
"Our savants all have bad

Thoreau,
because of a few verse tricks.---I can take out a ruler and
measure
too. I can even tell you how high a tree is by use of
geometry.---This

poems in the middle of formless fortunate explanations, heard them
in the
street & admired & forget them right there. Robert me No
Frost---Penn
Warren me no more---" (Some Of The Dharma, p.120)
This
was written in early fall 1954, right when Allen Ginsberg was
starting
to follow Jack's example, to avoid the middle of the road and
head
for the ditch (sorry, that's a Neil Young quote!).

This
reminds me of what Gore Vidal said of Paul Bowles:
"If
[Bowles] is so good, why is he so little known? Great American writers
are
supposed not only to live in the greatest country in the world (the
Unites
States, for those who came in late), but to write about that
greatest
of all human themes: THE AMERICAN EXPERIENCE. From the beginning
of the
Republic, this crude America First-ism has flourished. As a result,
there
is a strong tendency to misrepresent or under-value out three finest
novelists:
Henry James (who lived in England), Edith Wharton (who lived in
France),
Vladimir Nabokov (who lived in Switzerland, and who wasn't much
of an
American anyway despite an unnatural passion for our motels)....
Paul
Bowles had lived most of his life in Morocco. He seldom writes about
the
United States...."
So what
do we want? A great novel by an American, or a great novel about
that
"greatest of all human themes" no matter who it may be written by?

I read
Of Time and the River this summer....didn't at all find it a hard
read.
At 900+ pages, I thought it would take quite awhile to get thru, but
the
pages just flew by! It does "capture the spirit" in an energetic and
yet
densely-described way. In any case, it's must-reading as background to
Kerouac;
its influence on JK is palpable. For example, the first chapter
of part
3, the litany on Coming Home in October. "October had come again,
and
that year it was sharp and soon...."
And
I'll mention again a contemporary writer whom I think is pretty great:
Cormac
McCarthy. Has no one heard of this guy but me?! His 1985 book
_Blood
Meridian_ is probably the only novel I've ever read that I found
truly
disturbing.
And his
power of description is as luminous as anything I've read. Here's
a party
of horsemen moving across a desert:
"They
rode on. The white noon saw them through the waste like a ghost
army,
so pale they were with dust, like shades of figures erased upon a
board....They
moved on and the iron of the wagon-tires grew polished
bright
as chrome in the pumice....They took to riding by night, silent
jornadas
save for the trundling of the wagons and the wheeze of the
animals.
Under the moonlight a strange party of elders with the white dust
thick
on their moustaches and eyebrows. They moved on and the stars
jostled
and arced across the firmament and died beyond the inkblack
mountians....The
sand lay blue in the moonlight and the iron tires rolled
among
the shapes of the riders in gleaming hoops that veered and wheeled
woundedly
and vaguely navigational like slender astrolabes and the
polished
shoes of the horses kept hasping up like a myriad of eyes winking
across
the desert floor. They watched storms out there so distant they
could
not be heard, the silent lightning flaring sheetwise and the thin
black
spine of the mountain chain fluttering and sucked away again in the
dark.
They saw wild horses racing on the plain, pounding their shadows
down
the night and leaving in the moonlight a vaporous dust like the
palest
stain of their passing."

I've
said before, I think that probably what's most significant about
Kerouac's
work is its rhythm and tempo (you always see that Ginsberg
quote,
"spontaneous bop prosody")....it's so musical that it almost
doesn't
matter *what* he's actually saying. One of the very few prose
writers
of recent times whose work repays a study of prosody.
Reading
JK has led me to begin paying more attention to things like
rhythm,
tempo--rhetorical force generally--than I had been. I sometimes
hear
people say about some popular song how profound it is, but after
listening
to it all I can say is "No it isn't." And as someone on this
list
said recently about Dylan, the songs sound great but on the page they
are
rarely great poetry. So why do things like this sound so much more
profound
when set to music--i.e., to a certain rhythm and tempo? Is this
gain in
profundity just an illusion, or does it *really* add another
meaningful
dimension? I'm beginning to think that it does really add
something
important, that is not reducible to simple semantic meaning.
Too, I
used to sneer at religious fundamentalists for clinging to the King
James
translation of the bible. But now it seems to me that their position
(on
this particular issue) is not totally without foundation: the King
James
just *sounds* more powerful than the more modern versions, it
*sounds*
like the Word of God. I have been told by people who know that,
when
read in Hebrew, the Old Testament does have this powerful rhetorical
quality
to it. Why is it, exactly, that "Yea though I walk through the
valley
of the shadow of death, I shall fear no evil, for Thou art with me"
sound
so much better than "Even though I walk thru the valley of the
shadow
of death, I will not fear evil, because You are with me"? After
all,
they *mean* the same thing, don't they?
Ditto
for the Koran. After reading it in English, I am unable to see why
anyone
should ever have been inspired by this book. But I am told that
when
read in Arabic, it's some of the most powerful poetry there is....
And
jokes: how is that someone (e.g., me) can tell a joke and it falls
completely
flat, yet someone else can tell it, using the *exact same*
words,
and get a big laugh? Timing.... And fianlly back to music. Music
is
*nothing but* rhythm and tempo (and melody, sometimes). It doesn't
need
words at all to sound profound or exciting.
So for
texts,
it's
all a matter of how much relative weight one wishes to give to
rhetorical
force on the one hand, and semantic meaning on the other, in
the
total meaning of a work. Back to JK: in OTR, did any of the characters
really
*do* anything all that special? A little hitchiking, a few odd
jobs, a
few parties, some fast driving, a fast-talking friend who
might
appear merely irritating--nothing that hadn't been done
plenty
of times before. Certainly nothing that seems capable of inspiring
an
entire generation to jump up and hit the road. Nevertheless, it did
inspire.
How? It seems to me that almost all the energy and drive of
OTR
comes from the rhythm and tempo of the prose. Its infectious
excitement
come mainly from the *way* the story is told, not from what
they
actually *did* in the book.

Henry David Thoreau
Here,
again, I'm shackled a bit from having absolutely no background in
literature
per se. But the suggestion here and
several of the other
suggestions
elsewhere lead me to believe that (consistent with my
melting
pot theme -- i don't know if that post got out i can't find my
copy at
any rate) is that a weaving of various notions of method and
various
accepted and less than accepted forms of (for lack of a better
word)
"style" seem important to the notions of where the novel is or
might
be moving. It seems that Kerouac tried
this and viewed from the
perspective
of the larger Legend perhaps had some success (sufficient
that
i've sent notes to my family that it's JK Xmas for me and all i
want is
Kerouac Xmas presents). I think that
WSB may become the most
noted
of the Beat novelists in time. It seems
important -- from my
point
of view -- that the focus of his writings shift somewhat from the
fascination
with Naked Lunch (which is definitely fascinating) to more
energy
spent on the later writings -- including the preface to Queer --
the
later trilogy, My Education, and other less acclaimed works.
Sometimes
it seems to me that the fascination with method in Naked Lunch
(and
this has been true for me I know) is so involved in notions of
method
that the rest is easily forgotten. I
recall that my first
reaction
to WSB's writings (having heard the LP of Breakthrough in the
Grey
Room) was to randomly underline in his books and just read the
cut-ups. This limitation of my view of his notions of
technique led me
to miss
so much in my first run through his works.
As for the earlier
writings,
it seems to me that the movements he takes with language are
important
-- and are far more than just cut-ups.
The reactions perhaps
ARE
similar to what Diane suggested for Finnegan's Wake.
Incomprehensible
writings. And perhaps it will take
something like
Joseph
Campbell and co.'s Skeleton Key to Naked Lunch and cousins for
these
works to be comprehended sufficiently to be ultimately appreciated
in
terms of such matters as "cannonization".
Now my mind wanders some more back to
the questions of plot in Paul's
post
and methods in general and connecting this all to the heart of the
Beat
Generation listserve. In terms of
method, of writing techniques,
my
hunch is that the methods have been discussed in some respects
individually,
but i was wondering about the possibility of accumulating
thoughts
on the techniques of the various Beat Writers -- beginning with
the
core and moving on to the broader Rinaldoan list to try and get a
sense
of the depth and complexity of Beat Method.
Such a notion would
probably
be best served by attempting in the beginning to be as
distinguishing
as possible between various Beat styles -- even from
alterations
in style from one book to another by the same Beat writer --
and
then after the breadth is seen, perhaps the possibilites of finding
the
connections in Beat technique may be more easily accessible -- a
simple
forest and trees notion i suppose.
Where
does one start? Perhaps with the
beginnings of Queer as it has
been
mentioned several times of late.
Any
takers?
