Selected Poems, 1947 1995 by Allen Ginsberg

A powerful anthology spanning decades of work, this collection gathers incendiary, confessional, and spiritually searching poems that confront consumerism, war, sexuality, drugs, and mortality while embracing humor, ecstasy, and mystical insight. Ranging from long-form epics to spare lyrics, the pieces mix candid vernacular, jazz-inflected rhythms, political protest, and Buddhist-inflected meditation to chart personal transformation and American cultural upheaval across a half-century.
