About the book

One of the central relationships in the Beat scene was the long-lasting friendship of Allen Ginsberg and Gary Snyder. Beginning in 1956 and continuing until 1991, the two men exchanged more than 850 letters. Bill Morgan, Ginsberg's biographer and an important editor of his papers, has selected the most significant correspondence from this long friendship. Robert Hass' insightful introduction discusses the lives of these two major poets and their enriching and moving relationship.
