Let's examine the dramatic circumstances that gave rise to the Beat Generation in the 1940s. We'll look at three famous Beat works: 'Howl and Other Poems' by Allen Ginsberg, 'On the Road' by Jack Kerouac, and 'Naked Lunch' by William S. Burroughs. We will include historical events involving Beat writers, important passages of Beat literature, and the literary movement that spawned the 1960s counterculture. Note: The new refund policy applies.
