| Description: |
A major new collection from one of the most significant women poets of the SF Renaissance. |
| Synopsis: |
Beat and BeyondJoanne Kyger is a major woman of the Beat generation/SF Renaissance, associated with everyone from Gary Snyder and Allen Ginsberg to Jack Spicer and John Wieners. It's perfect City Lights material in this sense, although her work and temperament goes beyond the Beat label: she's a preeminent San Francisco poet.Untapped Relevance As an Important Woman PoetJoanne is a major American woman poet. At age 80, she's really at the top of the pantheon in this respect.Eastern PhilosophyThere is some cross-over into Buddhism/Zen in Kyger's work going back to the early days, in the same way, say, di Prima's work touches on these subjects.Rare ReleaseDespite the length and breadth of Joanne's writing career, she has very few easily available single releases-most of her work can only be found in selected and collected editions.Author TourDespite her age, Joanne is ready to tour areas in New York, the Bay Area where she lives, and Denver/Boulder, where she has connections to Naropa University. |
