Summary: homophobia unleashed
Comment: Did you know that Burroughs was straight? Or Ginsburg? Yep -- not a word about their homoerotic interests, either in the poems selected (or oddly slashed up) or in the intros. We do find out that Orlovsky was Ginsburg's "companion" -- is this the year 1928? The editor evidently thinks so. Instead of providing an honest introduction to Beat work, she inflicts salacious, incredibly obscure pieces upon us, like a 6-page rant from Michael McClure about (and I quote) "woman woman woman woman woman woman woman." This anthology tells us a lot about the editor's personal idiosyncracies, but it is not a balanced portrayal of the Beats.
