Beatnik/Beat Generation Writers - Search & Destroy

feel like the 'two generations of kids' bit is giving them too much credit tbh

not strictly a beat, but does anybody read terry southern any more?

i read 'candy' and 'the magic christian' a few years ago and loved them both. feels like a type of humor that's all but disappeared -- both of them read a little like lenny bruce-style put-ons stretched out to novel length.

Wow.
