Ron Collins Knihy

Allen Ginsberg, Jack Kerouac, Bill Burroughs, Neal Cassady, Lucien Carr a další… Kdo byli? Jak žili? Čeho si vážili? V životě i v literatuře vplétali skutečnost do fikce a fikci do skutečnosti – do reálného prožívání vlastních životů. A jak všechny ty paradoxy odráží jejich literární dílo? Nespoutaný vzdor Kvílení, úžasné scény v románu Na cestě, zoufalství ve Feťákovi, zdrcující satiru v Nahém obědě ani vzrušení v Jeď! jednoduše nelze oddělit od toho, jak doopravdy žili. Sex, drogy & literatura… Podle všech měřítek šlo o bizarní skupinu – geniální i narkomanskou, intelektuální i kriminální, nevinnou i nenávistnou, láskyplnou i obscénní, duchovní i cynickou. A byli dostatečně šílení, aby působili všemožné potíže včetně těch, jež daly vzniknout rebelské literatuře a pomohly zahájit revoluci v americké kultuře.
