Description:
San Francisco: Grabhorn-Hoyem, 1971. Published by Andrew Hoyem and Robert Grabhorn, this first signed limited edition of Ginsbergs Howl contains the original text as it was published in 1956 with minute revisions by the author with the addition of the related poetic fragment The Names, which Ginsberg wrote in 1957. The present volume is the first appearance of the two collected works. Ginsberg's Howl is regarded as the spearhead of the literary movement of the Beat Generation, as Ginsberg notes in his introductory note, "Howl's random catalogue of heroic archetype Seeker Persons generalized and abstracted their nature for poetic/surrealist imagery, sometimes with absurd humor I thought struck humane balance with the apocalyptic manners described.

Ginsberg's masterpiece was first published by City Lights in 1956 in a much-reproduced wrappers format, but this is the first fine press edition. It includes a new note by Ginsberg about the presentation here of Howl for the first time in tandem with the poetic continuation "The Names" (written 1957, published in the Paris Review 1966), his "autobiographical chronicle of Howl's same radiant persons living & dead adored to specify Names & deeds in extended eulogy - an embodyment [sic] of Howl's abstractions". Morgan notes that although the colophon states that 275 copies were produced, "several copies were misbound and about 20 sets of sheets were not bound due to a lack of adequate covers". Quarto.

Description:
Howl is considered to be one of the principal works of the Beat Generation. His influences included William Carlos Williams and Jack Kerouac and he attempted to speak in a spontaneous voice. The poem relates many of the stories and experiences of Ginsberg's friends and contemporaries, and is noted for its tumbling, hallucinatory style, and the frank address of sexuality, and homosexuality in particular, which was the basis for the obscenity charges. Much of his prompting in writing the poem was his sympathy for Carl Solomon, to whom he dedicated the book. Ginsberg met Solomon in a Psychiatric Hospital after he was arrested for having stolen goods in his apartment and vehicle. The poem uses the phrase "I'm with you in Rockland" as a refrain to each line in the third section. The first section of the poem immortalizes a few of Solomon's personal exploits, such as the line, "...who threw potato salad at CCNY lecturers on Dadaism and subsequently presented themselves on the granite steps of…
