Sinopse
Jack Kerouac. Allen Ginsberg. William S. Burroughs. LeRoi Jones . Theirs are the names primarily associated with the Beat Generation. But what about Joyce Johnson (nee Glassman ), Edie Parker, Elise Cowen, Diane Di Prima , and dozens of others? These female friends and lovers of the famous iconoclasts are now beginning to be recognized for their own roles in forging the Beat movement and for their daring attempts to live as freely as did the men in their circle a decade before Women's Liberation. Twenty-one-year-old Joyce Johnson , an aspiring novelist and a secretary at a New York literary agency, fell in love with Jack Kerouac on a blind date arranged by Allen Ginsberg nine months before the publication of On the Road made Kerouac an instant celebrity. While Kerouac traveled to Tangiers, San Francisco, and Mexico City, Johnson roamed the streets of the East Village, where she found herself in the midst of the cultural revolution the Beats had created. Minor Characters portrays the turbulent years of her relationship with Kerouac with extraordinary wit and love and a cool, critical eye, introducing the reader to a lesser known but purely original American voice: her own.

Sobre Tree Frog Fine Books and Graphic Arts
We owned and operated The Looking Glass Bookstore in downtown Portland, Oregon for thirty years. Our citations on this site are the accumulation of first editions, small press, galleys, letter press, comics and comix, and other interesting books and ephemera that we set aside over those years. Almost everything we saved is new, added to boxes that were sealed and kept until now.
