Beat Scene No. 106 (Late Winter 2023)

Coventry, England: Beat Scene Press, 2023. First Printing. Perfect Bound. This newest (as of this writing) number of the indispensable Beat Generation-dedicated magazine-format literary journal edited & published by Kevin Ring in the UK features several important articles concerning William S. Burroughs, Founding Father of the Beats-&-Beyond & our foremost Patron Saint-Demon, by Demi Raven, Dawn Swoop & New York School-&-Beyond icon Anne Waldman. Also in this issue are fascinating & informative pieces on Gregory Corso by Ring & Sophia Nitrate; Bob Dylan & Lawrence Ferlinghetti by Tom Willems; Larry Fagin by Eric Jacobs; Brenda Frazer (a/k/a Bonnie Bremser) by Swoop; Brion Gysin by John Dunton; Jack Kerouac (on the newly released Desolation Peak) by his first & foremost biographer & bibliographer Ann Charters; "The Curious Death of (WSB's elusive associate) Ian Somerville" by Mike Kearns; a never-yet-filmed script by Terry Southern (which we happen to offer, see our item No. 5168), "Saving Terry Southern's Wolsey Pickett," by Ring; & much more. With, of course, reviews & many vintage images throughout including the later plaid-shirted Kerouac with drink in hand on front cover & the front cover of the classic compilation The San Francisco Poets on back cover. Another stellar issue in the highly collectible series that never fails to more than live up to its front cover motto: "This is the Beat Generation." See our many other issues of Beat Scene magazine & other special BSP productions. In very fine condition with only small area of short creases at lower left front cover, spine & lower right back cover; a few tiny bumps, creases at lower edges & corners of front, back covers & spine; very small, faint creases at lower corners of some page leaves; otherwise as-new. Very Fine. [Item #5542]
