TextoDetalles de publicación: San Francisco : Cleis Press, 2004 Descripción: XXXVII, 207 p. ; 23 cmISBN: 1-57344-188-0Tema(s): Literatura erótica | Homosexualidad y literatura -- Estados Unidos | Literatura estadounidense -- 19.. -- Historia y críticaResumen: Blasting through the crew-cuts and conformism of their day, the Beat writers were queer in the fullest sense of the word: their fluid sexuality challenged all sexual and romantic conventions. Most shocking of their unconventional attitudes was their embrace of same-sex eroticism. At a time when gay people were considered mentally ill or criminal, the Beats celebrated spontaneity and freedom in thought, word, and action. Their highest value was nakedness-even before Allen Ginsberg stripped bare at a poetry reading to silence a heckler. They would try anything once, then write about it.
