Paperback. Zustand: Good. A tribute to Ginsberg's signature work, which stirred a generation of angel-headed hipsters to cultural rebellion. In 1956, City Lights, a small San Francisco bookstore, published Allen Ginsberg's Howl and Other Poems with its trademark black-and-white cover. The original edition cost seventy-five cents, but there was something priceless about its eponymous piece. Although it gave a voice to the new generation that came of age in the conservative years following World War II, the poem also conferred a strange, subversive power that continues to exert its influence to this day. Ginsberg went on to become one of the most eminent and celebrated writers of the second half of the twentieth century, and "Howl" became the critical axis of the worldwide literary, cultural, and political movement that would be known as the Beat generation. The year 2006 marks the fiftieth anniversary of the publication of "Howl," and The Poem That Changed America will celebrate and shed new light on this profound cultural work. With new essays by many of today's most distinguished writers, including Frank Bidart, Andrei Codrescu, Vivian Gornick, Phillip Lopate, Daphne Merkin, Rick Moody, Robert Pinsky, and Luc Sante, The Poem That Changed America reveals the pioneering influence of "Howl" down through the decades and its powerful resonance today.…

Hardback. Zustand: Very Good. In recent years, psychotherapy has become a widely accepted and even popular form of treatment for mental and emotional troubles. Whether seeking guidance, comfort, help, or just some small measure of peace, more people than ever are going, to the therapist's couch for the talking cure. The literary artist is no exception. In fact, the writer -- whose life in many cases serves as inspiration for his or her work -- is in an ideal position to evaluate the experience.In this fascinating, revealing, and profoundly intimate volume, editor Jason Shinder has collected the personal reminiscences of some of the greatest writers today, all of whom have been to the therapist's couch and now offer valuable insight into the process. Adam Gopnik wryly discusses what was easily one of the most unsuccessful psychoanalyses ever attempted by an eccentric New York Freudian. Pam Houston offers a riveting account of the revolutionary technique that brought her back from the brink of madness. Mark Doty poignantly chronicles how therapy, and a trip to the Serengeti, awakened him to the truth that -- while his marriage was dead -- his future was still very much alive. And Susan Cheever takes a humorous look at psychotherapy through the eyes of a lifelong patient.From poet and memoirist David Mura's serious concern that therapy in America fails patients of color to George Plimpton's health skepticism about the entire process -- from one writer who is joyous at the prospect of getting two therapists for the price of one to another who likens therapy to baseball, finding special comfort in Willie Mays -- these essays are by turns funny, introspective, inspiring, disquieting, thoughtful, often provocative, and always entertaining.In this remarkable anthology of essays -- many never before published -- seventeen award-winning poets, playwrights, and writers confront depression, addiction, troubled pasts, and mental instability. In addition, they probe the effects of psychotherapy, from pivotal to nonexistent, on their lives -- as well as on the storytelling process itself. The result is a remarkably well-written, deeply revealing journey into the psyches of some of America's premier literary talents.…

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. The final collection by the late Jason Shinder, "one of the finest of our new poets" (Gerald Stern) I close my eyes and try to rememberwhen I was unopposed, when I started to die,buoyant, fragrant, shuddering with love. --from "Before" Jason Shinder's last poems are his moving testimonies to poetry, love, and friendship. With power, clarity, and disarming humor, the poems confront grief and mortality with a humility and fortitude that come only "with hope, stupid hope." Stupid Hope is Shinder's wry, penetrating, and wise farewell.…
