Go ([New] ed.)

The novel that launched the beat generation's literary legacy describes the world of Jack Kerouac, Allen Ginsberg and Neil Cassady.

Published two months before Kerouac began "On the Road", "Go" is the first and most accurate chronicle of the private lives the Beats lived before they became public figures.

In lucid fictional prose designed to capture the events, emotions and essence of his experience, Holmes describes an individualistic post-World II New York where crime is celebrated, writing is revered, and parties, booze, discussions, drugs and sex punctuate life.
