Dive into the raw and visceral poetry of Allen Ginsberg with 'Howl and Other Poems'. This book, published by Visor Libros, S.L., is a collection of poems that explore themes of sex, drugs, religion, and politics, making Ginsberg a provocative and committed figure of the 20th century. 'Howl', the poem that gives its name to the collection, is considered an emblem of the Beat Generation and a fundamental text of American youth protest. This Spanish edition, translated by Katy Gallego and revised by Antonio Resines, captures the essence and spirit of the original work.
Irwin Allen Ginsberg was an American poet and writer. As a student at Columbia University in the 1940s, he began friendships with Lucien Carr, William S. Burroughs and Jack Kerouac, forming the core of the Beat Generation. He vigorously opposed militarism, economic materialism and sexual repression and he embodied various aspects of this counterculture with his views on drugs, sex, multiculturalism, hostility to bureaucracy and openness to Eastern religions.
